Siebel Remote and Replication Manager Administration Guide > Extracting Databases for Mobile Web Clients >

Enabling the Stand-Alone Synchronizer

A mobile user can control the synchronization start-up process by running the Siebel Remote client in a third-party scheduling program. Table 13 shows the command-line options for the Siebel Remote client.

NOTE:  If a local connection to the client is open and the user uses the Siebel Remote icon to synchronize, synchronization works successfully. However, if a new database extract exists for that user, the synchronization fails, because it is trying to overwrite the sse_data.dbf file, which is already in use. Therefore, the stand-alone Siebel Remote client should only be used when the mobile Web client is not in use.
