Starting and Stopping Siebel Remote Server Components

You can use either Administration views or the Siebel Server Manager to start and stop any Siebel Remote server components.

NOTE:  Event logs provide helpful information for diagnosing problems that may arise. To enable event logging for Remote components, see Siebel System Administration Guide. For example, to receive useful information for the dbxtract component, enter the following in the command-line interface for srvrmgr:

change evtloglvl GenericLog=5, Trace=5, SQL=5, EVENT_GENERIC_PROFILE=5 for comp Dbxtract

start task for comp Dbxtract server <server_name> with Client=<client_name>, SQLFlags=2, TraceFlags=7

The following procedures describe how to use srvrmgr to enable or disable the Siebel Remote component group, and how to disable individual components within the enabled group.

To enable the Remote component group

1. In the command-line interface, change to the Siebel Server bin subdirectory.
2. Enter the following command to invoke the Line Mode Server Manager:

   srvrmgr /e <enterprise server> /g <gatewayserver> /u <username> /p <password>

3. From the Server Manager command line, enter:

   enable compgrp remote

   This will enable all Siebel Remote components: Synchronization Manager, Transaction Processor, Transaction Router, Transaction Merger, Replication Agent, Database Extract, Parallel Database Extract, and Generate New Database.

4. From the GUI, synchronize the components by navigating to Administration - Server Configuration > Enterprises> Synchronize.
5. Click Synchronize.

   For more information about synchronizing components, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

To disable the Remote component group

• From the Server Manager command line, enter:

  disable compgrp remote

To enable Remote component group for a specific server

• From the Server Manager command line, enter:

  enable compgrp remote for server <server_name>

  This will enable Remote only on certain Application servers in the enterprise, rather than on all of them.

To disable individual components of the Remote component group

• From the Server Manager command line, enter:

  disable compdef <component definition>

  Component definition will be synchmgr, txnproc, txnroute, txnmerge, repagent, dbxtract, pdbxtract, or gennewdb, depending upon the situation.
