Verifying the Siebel Client Directory Structure

The Siebel client installer creates directories on each Siebel client. Use Windows Explorer to verify the directory structure on your computer. Following are an example of the directory structure of a typical Siebel client installation and descriptions of individual directories.

NOTE:  The objects folder contains the SRF file. Monitoring of any SRF file by virus scanning software may significantly degrade Siebel client performance. If you have virus scanning software installed on your computers, configure it to skip SRF files. Because these files are binary data files, the risk of virus infection is low, and so excluding these files from scanning is usually acceptable. Alternatively, you may choose to scan SRF files, but less frequently than other files.

• SIEBEL_CLIENT_ROOT. The directory for the Siebel client installation, such as C:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\Web Client (the default). This installation directory contains the directories identified here. You can change the name during the installation process. For more information, see Directory Naming Conventions.
