Scenario 3


You are deploying languages shipped in a subsequent Siebel eBusiness Applications release to the initial rollout.

Option 1: Add new languages to your existing physical resource allocation.

  • Follow the previous instructions for Scenario 1.
  • Import the file omdefs.dat from the newly installed Siebel Language Packs on the servers where they will be deployed by entering the following KSH command from within the \SIEBEL_ROOT\binary directory of your Siebel servers:

    .\srvrcfg -g SiebelGateway -e SiebelEnterprise -a components -i SIEBEL_ROOT\bin\lang\omdefs.dat -c ALL

    NOTE:  Siebel Industry Applications customers should use omdefs_sia.dat.

    Where:

    SiebelGateway = the alias of your Siebel Gateway

    SiebelEnterprise = the alias of your Siebel Enterprise Server

    SIEBEL_ROOT = your Siebel eBusiness Applications intallation directory

  • Disable any language-specific SOMs that you do not intend to use on specific servers. For more information, see the Siebel Server Installation Guide for the operating system you are using.

Option 2: Add New Physical Resources as Part of Expanding Language Support

  • Follow the procedures in Scenario 1 while installing new languages on new physical resources.
  • Create new language-specific SOMs as part of configuring each new server.
  • Disable any language-specific SOMs that you do not intend to use on specific servers.
