Installing Mobile and Dedicated Web Clients

Siebel Systems supports Mobile and Dedicated Web Client installations on the hardware and operating systems described in System Requirements and Supported Platforms. This installation is based on default installation parameters set by Siebel Systems.

You can use the Siebel Packager utility to prepare custom installation packages for distribution to end users. A model client installation is prepared as the basis for a package. For details, see Using Siebel Packager Utility.

  1. Review the preinstallation tasks. See Before Installing.
  2. Create a model installation by running the Siebel client installer (for Mobile and Dedicated Web Client). See Installing the Siebel Mobile and Dedicated Web Client.

  4. Verify the installation by performing the postinstallation tasks. See After Installing.
  5. Log into the Siebel application. See Logging into Your Siebel Application.
  6. Configure the Siebel Mobile Web Client and verify connection to Siebel Remote Server. See Configuring and Using Mobile Web Client.
  7. As necessary, modify values for configuration parameters for the Mobile or Dedicated Web Client. See Configuration Parameters.
