Installing Siebel Analytics Web Components

During the main Siebel Analytics installation, you should have selected the Siebel Analytics Web component to install, either as part of the Complete installation option or by itself. The credentials for the Analytics Web user should be identical to the permissions for the user running all Siebel Analytics processes.

The UNIX version of Analytics Web is implemented as a thin J2EE servlet wrapper on top of a highly optimized set of native libraries. The servlet wrapper adheres to the Java Servlet 2.2 specification, and therefore part of the installation process involves deployment of this servlet. The deployment procedure for the servlet roughly mirrors the procedure used for any other J2EE servlet, with some special consideration given to the fact that much of the functionality is provided through native libraries.

NOTE:  If the Analytics Web and Analytics Server components run on the same machine, then both the Analytics Server process and the Web Server process hosting Analytics Web must run under the same user credentials. This restriction does not apply if the two components are running on separate machines.

The following examples for installing on different UNIX platforms assume that you are installing on a machine named saw.siebel.com and that all Analytics processes run as the user sa.

The Analytics Web, Analytics Client, and Analytics Server components can be installed to run on separate machines.
