Support for Heterogeneous Environments

SWSE configuration can be performed in homogeneous environments or in heterogeneous environments where the Siebel Gateway Name Server (where you configure the SWSE logical profile) and the Web server and SWSE are on different operating systems.

This topic is part of Requirements for Installing and Configuring the Siebel Web Server Extension.

Heterogeneous environments might resemble the following scenarios:

• You installed the Siebel Gateway Name Server on a UNIX or Linux computer, and installed the Web server and SWSE on a Windows computer.
• You installed the Siebel Gateway Name Server on a Windows computer, and installed the Web server and SWSE on a UNIX or Linux computer.

According to your needs, you can move the SWSE logical profile directory to another computer before configuring the physical SWSE (applying the logical profile to an installed instance of SWSE). For more information, see Applying the SWSE Logical Profile.
