Siebel Configuration Wizard Syntax Elements

This topic describes the command-line syntax for starting the Siebel Configuration Wizards. See also the procedures for starting configuration wizards in Configuring Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension.

The command-line syntax for starting the Configuration Wizard includes the following elements:

• -mode mode_name. Specifies the Siebel Configuration Wizard that you are running. The command must be executed within an installed instance of the applicable Siebel module. The supported modes are as follows:
  • enterprise. Starts the Siebel Enterprise Configuration Wizard (to configure Siebel Gateway Name Server, Siebel Enterprise, or SWSE logical profile). When using this mode, you can optionally save a response file for later unattended configuration. These configuration tasks are performed from the Siebel Gateway Name Server installation.
  • siebsrvr. Starts the Siebel Server Configuration Wizard. When using this mode, you can optionally save a response file for later unattended configuration. This configuration task is performed from the Siebel Server installation.
  • dbsrvr. Starts the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard. This configuration task is performed from the Siebel Server installation where you also installed Siebel Database Configuration Utilities.
  • swse. Starts the Siebel Web Server Extension Configuration Wizard. When using this mode, you can optionally save a response file for later unattended configuration. This configuration task is performed from the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) installation.
  • mgmtagent. Starts the Siebel Management Agent Configuration Wizard. This configuration task is performed from the Siebel Server installation.
  • mgmtsrvr. Starts the Siebel Management Server Configuration Wizard. This configuration task is performed from the Siebel Management Server installation (on Microsoft Windows only).
• -responseFile file_name. Specifies the name of a response file that you are executing, for an unattended configuration. The response file would have been saved in a previous configuration session for one of the listed modes that supports saving response files. In unattended mode, wizard screens that would normally display are not displayed, because the applicable data is already stored in the response file. Unattended configuration is often invoked from an unattended installation session. The flags -mode and -responseFile are mutually exclusive (that is, they cannot be used in the same session).
• -skipValidation. Specifies that no validation should be performed of user input. Use this flag when saving a response file for an unattended configuration, or when previewing wizard screens. (The Siebel Database Configuration Wizard, Siebel Management Agent Configuration Wizard, and Siebel Management Server Configuration Wizard do not support unattended configuration and require validation.)
• -verbose. Specifies that more details should be included in configuration log files.
