About Installing Additional Siebel Servers for an Existing Siebel Enterprise

You can install and configure multiple Siebel Servers for a Siebel Enterprise.

Typically, before installing and configuring additional Siebel Servers for an existing Siebel Enterprise, you complete installation and configuration for the Siebel Web Server Extension, as described in Installing Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension and Configuring Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension.

You can also deploy a new Siebel Server based on an existing configured Siebel Server, using the cloning utility described in Cloning a Siebel Installation.

Run the Siebel Enterprise Server installer to install each additional Siebel Server on another server computer, and run the Siebel Server Configuration Wizard to configure this Siebel Server.

NOTE:  Alternatively, you can use the Siebel Server Configuration Wizard to configure an additional Siebel Server on a single computer where the Siebel Server is already installed and configured. Creating multiple Siebel Server configurations for a single installed Siebel Server instance is typically done only for test or development purposes. In your production environment, it is strongly recommended that you configure only one Siebel Server for each server computer. Where Siebel Remote is to be deployed, do not create multiple Siebel Server configurations for a single installed Siebel Server instance.
