Installing the Data Quality Universal Connector Files on the Network

For you to perform data cleansing, the third-party vendor software usually needs a set of files for standardization and data cleansing. These files, which Firstlogic calls dictionary files, can be large. It is recommended that you do not store your dictionary files on the same machine that you install your Siebel Server. The dictionary files are then accessed through UNC (Universal Naming Convention—machine name should start with \\) for Windows or NFS (Network File Service) for UNIX.

If you place the dictionary files in a network directory, you must explicitly identify the location of the dictionary files in the third-party configuration files. For example, Firstlogic stores this setting in the sdqaddress.cfg:

US_ENGINE_DIRECTORY_PATH

\\NetDrive\SDQConnector\US
