Configuring the Siebel Gateway Name Server


After you install the Siebel Gateway Name Server, you run the Siebel Configuration Wizard (Siebel Enterprise Configuration) to configure the Siebel Gateway Name Server.

This task is a step in:

To configure the Siebel Gateway Name Server

  1. Open a shell window on the computer on which you installed the Siebel Gateway Name Server.
  2. Source the cfgenv.csh or cfgenv.sh environment setup file.

    Navigate to the $SIEBEL_GATEWAY_ROOT directory and source the environment file by using one of the following commands, depending on the type of shell that you use. Perform this step before each time that you run the Siebel Enterprise Configuration Wizard.

    C shell

    source cfgenv.csh

    Bourne or Korn shell

    . ./cfgenv.sh

    TIP:   Make sure that there is a space between the initial period and ./cfgenv.sh.

    In this path, $SIEBEL_GATEWAY_ROOT is the location of the Siebel Gateway Name Server root directory. For example, for Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11, the directory might be /export/home/siebel/8.1.1.11.0/ses/gtwysrvr.

  3. Start the Siebel Enterprise Configuration Wizard.

    For more information, see Starting a Siebel Configuration Wizard.

    Enter a command similar to the following:

    install_path/config/config -mode enterprise

    In this path, install_path is the installation path for the installed Siebel Enterprise Server software.

  4. Choose Create New Configuration, then Configure a New Gateway Name Server.
  5. Provide input as described in Table 5. The wizard displays help text with more information about most of these settings.
  6. Click Exit Configuration to exit the Configuration Wizard.
