Verifying Installation for the Siebel Enterprise Server


After installing the Siebel Enterprise Server software as a new installation or as a patch installation (migration installation), review the installation log files, verify the version number of your installed software, and review the Siebel Enterprise Server directories and files that now exist under the SIEBEL_ROOT directory that you specified during the installation.

NOTE:  Additional top-level directories are created, which are parallel to the directories for the Siebel Gateway Name Server, Siebel Server, and so on. These directories include ccr for Oracle Configuration Manager files, config for Siebel Configuration Wizard files, cfgtoollogs for installation log files, opatch for files related to the opatch utility, oui for files related to Oracle Universal Installer, and so on.

This topic contains the following information:

Reviewing the Installation Log Files for Siebel Enterprise Server

After installing the Siebel Enterprise Server components, review the installation log files to verify that all of the components installed successfully, particularly if you experienced any difficulties with the installation. The log files are created in the following directory:

SIEBEL_ROOT\cfgtoollogs\oui

The relevant log files for an installation session are named installActionsdate_time.log file. In the file name, date_time represents the date and time when the file was created; for example, installActions2013-07-02_10-28-04PM.log. For each set of files created, the oldest and largest log file generally represents the Siebel module being installed.

Verifying the Installation Version Number for Siebel Enterprise Server

After installing the Siebel Enterprise Server components, verify the version number of installed software.

To verify the installation version number for Siebel Enterprise Server

  1. Open a DOS window.
  2. Set the value of the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to correspond to your top-level installation location, such as C:\siebel\8.1.1.11.0\ses or C:\siebel\8.2.2.4.0\ses for an installation of Siebel Enterprise Server software. For example, enter a command like this for Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11:

    set ORACLE_HOME=C:\siebel\8.1.1.11.0\ses

  3. Navigate to the opatch directory within your installation. For example, enter a command like this for Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11:

    cd C:\siebel\8.1.1.11.0\ses\opatch

  4. Enter the following command:

    opatch lsinventory

    The installed components within the specified Oracle home are displayed, with the version number as managed by Oracle Universal Installer. For example, the version number shown for your installed software might be 8.1.1.11.0 or 8.2.2.4.0.

Reviewing the Installation Directories for Siebel Gateway Name Server

After installing the Siebel Gateway Name Server, review the directory structure created by the installer.

The Siebel Gateway Name Server is installed in the SIEBEL_GATEWAY_ROOT directory within the Siebel root directory that you specified during the installation. The default installation location is C:\siebel\8.1.1.11.0\ses\gtwysrvr or C:\siebel\8.2.2.4.0\ses\gtwysrvr. Verify that the following Siebel Gateway Name Server directories and files now exist in the installation directory. In the list, lang represents each language that you have installed, such as ENU for U.S. English.

gtwysrvr. Top-level directory for Siebel Gateway Name Server.

 

ADMIN. The template files used for scripts that control the running and configuration of the Siebel Gateway Name Server.

lang. Language-specific files and scripts. These are not configurable.

 

LOG. Siebel Gateway Name Server log files.

Reviewing the Installation Directories for Siebel Server

After installing the Siebel Server, review the directory structure created by the installer.

The Siebel Server is installed in the SIEBSRVR_ROOT directory within the Siebel root directory that you specified during the installation. The default installation location is C:\siebel\8.1.1.11.0\ses\siebsrvr or C:\siebel\8.2.2.4.0\ses\siebsrvr. Verify that the following Siebel Server directories and files now exist in the installation directory. In the list, lang represents each language that you have installed, such as ENU for U.S. English.

NOTE:  The OBJECTS directory contains the SRF file. Monitoring of any SRF files by virus scanning software might significantly degrade Siebel Server performance. If you have virus scanning software installed on your computers, then configure it to skip SRF files. Because these files are binary data files, the risk of virus infection is low, and so excluding these files from scanning is usually acceptable. Alternatively, you can scan SRF files less frequently than other files.
