Applying the SWSE Logical Profile


This procedure describes the steps for applying a logical profile to a specific installed instance of SWSE. You perform the same procedure for each SWSE.

NOTE:  When the SWSE and the Web server are on a different computer from the Siebel Gateway Name Server (as is typical), then, after creating the profile as described in Configuring the SWSE Logical Profile, you must either copy the profile directory to the Web server computer or provide remote access to the directory for the task described in this topic. For example, on Windows you might map the profile directory to the applicable drive on the remote computer.

On Microsoft Windows with Microsoft IIS, you can precustomize which virtual directories to create on the Web server. For more information, see Creating Custom Virtual Directories. When you configure the SWSE and add new virtual directories, existing virtual directories are not deleted.

For information about where the virtual directories are created on Microsoft IIS, see Verifying the Siebel Virtual Directories on the Web Server. For information about supported versions of Microsoft IIS, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support. See also Installing the Web Server.

This topic is part of Process of Configuring the Siebel Web Server Extension.

For background information, see About Configuring the Siebel Web Server Extension.

To apply the SWSE logical profile

  1. Determine which SWSE logical profile to use for this installed instance of SWSE.
  2. Verify access to the logical profile directory, if it is located on a remote computer.
  3. If you will be using load balancing, then make sure that you created the lbconfig.txt file and placed it in the SWSE logical profile directory.

    For more information, see Process of Configuring Load Balancing for Siebel Business Applications.

  4. Start the Siebel Web Server Extension Configuration Wizard.

    For more information, see Starting a Siebel Configuration Wizard.

  5. Choose Apply an SWSE Logical Profile.
  6. Provide input as described in Table 9.

    The wizard displays help text with more information about these settings.

    NOTE:  When the task to apply the SWSE logical profile is complete, the Web server is stopped and restarted automatically.

  7. Click Exit Configuration to exit the Configuration Wizard.

Comment or Description

Deployed Languages

Each language that you select must be an installed language. For each deployed language and each application, a separate section is created in the eapps.cfg or eapps_sia.cfg file. For example, Siebel Call Center uses the sections named [/callcenter_lang]. Part of the ConnectString value represents the three-letter code for the deployed language.

You can deploy languages that you installed but did not deploy by running the SWSE Configuration Wizard again and choosing the task Add Language Support for the SWSE Configuration. For more information, see About Installing and Deploying Siebel Business Applications with Multiple Languages.

Select a Load Balancer

Specify whether you are using Siebel native load balancing, third-party load balancing, or no load balancing. Specify no load balancing for a deployment with a single Siebel Server. For more information, see Process of Configuring Load Balancing for Siebel Business Applications.

Siebel Server Host Name (Siebel Server)

The host name of the Siebel Server computer. Specify this for a deployment with a single Siebel Server.

Siebel Connection Broker Port

The Siebel Connection Broker (SCBroker) port number on the Siebel Server computer. Specify this port number for a deployment with a single Siebel Server. The default port number for SCBroker is 2321.

NOTE:  This port number is used for all of the communications between the Web server and the Siebel Server. Make sure that the port number that you specify for SCBroker is not occupied by any other applications, other Siebel components (such as Siebel Gateway Name Server), or other Siebel Server instances.

For more information about the SCBroker component, see Siebel Deployment Planning Guide and Siebel System Administration Guide.

If you want to change an SCBroker port number later, then use Siebel Server Manager to specify a value for the Static Port Number parameter (alias PortNumber).

Host Name or Virtual IP Address for Third-Party Load Balancer

A host name or virtual IP address for use with a third-party load balancer.

Network Port Number for Third-Party Load Balancer

A network port number for use with a third-party load balancer.

Siebel Web Server Extension Logical Profile Location

The location of the SWSE logical profile that you created in Configuring the SWSE Logical Profile.

Enter location of response file

The location of a response file to save, if you intend to later execute such a file to perform unattended configuration.
