Setting Up for Mobile Client Searching Under Windows

Mobile clients can use Siebel search in disconnected mode by installing and setting up the Hummingbird SearchServer software on their machine, and synchronizing the indices from the search server. Just like the search server installation, Hummingbird must be installed before proceeding with the Siebel mobile client installation. Provided you do this, all configurations will be set up automatically. Then, during the synchronization process, indices will be copied from the search server machine to the Siebel file system.

When a Mobile Client works in connected mode, the mobile client can send search requests to a remote search server. When installing the mobile client, you must enter a remote search server name and port number. For more information, see To configure Siebel Server for remote searching under Windows.

NOTE:  You must perform Search Administration tasks through the Web Client in High Interactivity mode, you cannot perform Search Administration on either the Siebel Developer Web Client or the Mobile Client.
