Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Service for Siebel

How to Register and Configure the Siebel Server

  1. Add the resource type for the Siebel server.


    # scrgadm -a -t SUNW.sblsrvr
    
  2. Create the failover resource group to hold the logical hostname and the Siebel server resources.


    Note –

    If you have already created a resource group, added the logical hostname resource, and brought the resource group online when you completed the How to Prepare the Nodes procedure, you may skip to Step 5.



    # scrgadm -a -g siebel-rg [-h nodelist]
    
  3. Add the logical hostname resource.

    This logical hostname should match the value of the HOST_NAME parameter for the Siebel server.


    # scrgadm -a -L -g siebel-rg -l logical-hostname
    
  4. Bring the resource group online.

    The following command brings the resource group online on the preferred node.


    # scswitch -Z -g siebel-rg
    
  5. Verify that the siebenv.sh file is located under server_root.

  6. Create a file called scsblconfig under server_root , owned by the owner of siebenv.sh.

    If the Siebel server is installed locally, create the file scsblconfig under server_root on all nodes.

    For security reasons, make this file readable only by the owner.


    # cd server_root
    # touch scsblconfig
    # chown siebel:siebel scsblconfig
    # chmod 400 scsblconfig
    
  7. Select a database user (for example, dbuser/dbuserpassword) with permission to connect to the database for use by the Sun Cluster HA for Siebel Fault Monitor.

  8. Select another Siebel user (for example, sadmin/sadminpassword) with permission to run the compgrps command in srvrmgr.

  9. Add the following entries into the sbsblconfig file.


    export DBUSR=dbuser
    export DBPWD=dbuserpassword
    export SADMUSR=sadmin
    export SADMPWD=sadminpassword
    
  10. Create the Siebel server resource.


    # scrgadm -a -j sblsrvr-rs -g siebel-rg \
    -t SUNW.sblsrvr \
    -x Confdir_list=server_root \
    -x siebel_enterprise=siebel enterprise name \
    -x siebel_server=siebel server name
    

    Caution – Caution –

    If you enter incorrect values for siebel_enterprise or siebel_server, you may not see any errors during validation. However, resource startup will fail. If siebel_enterprise is incorrect, validate method will not be able to verify database connectivity, which will result in a warning only.


  11. Enable the Siebel server resource.


    # scswitch -e -j sblsrvr-rs
    
  12. Verify that the resource group and the Siebel server resource are online, by using scstat –g and ps –ef commands.
