Installing Multilingual Seed Data

If your organization deploys internationally and, therefore, requires data to be in multiple languages, you must install multilingual seed data (for example, lists of views, responsibilities, or system preferences). You install this seed data by adding new language packs to your database after you install the base language for your Database Server. These language packs populate the List of Values (LOV) with seed data in the new language.

You must successfully install seed data in your base language before you can add seed data in other languages to your database.

NOTE:  You cannot add secondary languages to the Siebel database for an Enterprise Server unless you have already installed them on the associated Siebel Server.

To install multilingual seed data under Windows

1. Follow the instructions for Installing the Database Server Software Under Windows, specifying the installation instance to which you want to add the language (Step 5).
2. When installation is completed, launch the Database Server Configuration utility by following the instructions under Performing a Standard Installation Under Windows.
3. When the Select Installation Operation screen appears (Step 7), select Add a language to an existing Siebel Database, and then click Next.

   NOTE:  To add seed data in a new language to your database, you must have already imported your repository in its base language.

   The Base Language screen appears and displays the languages you have installed for your Siebel Database.

4. In the Base Language screen, specify which of the installed languages is the one in which you want to primarily run your database. (This is your base language.)

   To continue, click Next.

   NOTE:  The Language Selection screen appears only if you have installed the files for multiple Siebel Language Packs. Installation of multiple Language Packs can occur either during your initial installation of Siebel 7 or at a later time.

5. In the Language Selection screen, specify the new language you are adding for this database.

   To continue, click Next.

   The ODBC Data Source Name screen appears.

6. Respond to the remaining prompts as you did when you originally completed the procedure, Performing a Standard Installation Under Windows, until you have completed Step 11. The Repository Name screen appears.
7. Type the name of your Siebel Repository or accept the displayed default name.

   To continue, click Next.

8. On the Log Output Directory screen, accept the default name, or type another valid name to indicate where you want log output files to be created.
9. When the runnow message box appears, click OK to apply the configuration now, or click Cancel to apply it later.

   If a program or system error occurs and you need to rerun the Siebel Upgrade Wizard, you can do so, starting at the point at which the wizard failed, by navigating to SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin and entering:

   siebupg.exe /m master_install_lang.ucf

10. In the Configuration Parameter Review screen, review the configuration values you entered and then click Finish. The items to be executed or imported are displayed.
11. To begin, click OK.

    A window appears, displaying information about installation activities. Afterwards, a message appears when the installation is completed.

    To verify that the installation was successful, review the log files. See About Reviewing the Log Files for Repository Import.

    TIP:   Locate the file master_install_lang.ucf in the SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin directory and print it out, so that you have a record of the values you entered.

12. When you have finished configuration using the Database Server Configuration wizard, you must enable the multilingual list of values (MLOV) capability within Siebel Business Applications. For information on how to do this, see the Global Deployment Guide.
13. After you enable MLOV capability, proceed to Importing a New Language to Your Repository.

To install multilingual seed data under UNIX

1. Follow the instructions under Installing the Database Server Software Under UNIX, specifying the installation instance to which you want to add the new language (Step 7).
2. Select the language you want to add to the current installation and click Next. The new language is installed.
3. When installation is successfully completed, click Finish.
4. Launch the Database Server Configuration utility by following the instructions under Performing a Standard Installation Under UNIX.
5. When the Installation Options screen is displayed (Step 9), select option 2 - Add a language to an existing Siebel Database.
6. On the Language Selection screen, specify which of the displayed languages you are adding on top of your base language for this database.
7. On the Base Language screen, specify which of the languages you installed is the one in which you want to primarily run your database. (This is your base language.)
8. Respond to the remaining prompts as before until you have completed Step 14. The Repository Name screen then appears.
9. Either accept the default repository name or enter another name.
10. On the Common Parameters screen, indicate where log output files are to be created. The default directory is install_lang.
11. Review the values you previously entered for accuracy. If they are correct, launch the Siebel Upgrade Wizard (srvrupgwiz) by entering 1 (Yes).

    A message appears when the installation is completed.

    NOTE:  If a program or system error occurs and you need to rerun the Siebel Upgrade Wizard, you can do so, starting at the point at which the wizard failed, by navigating to $SIEBSRVR_ROOT/bin and entering:

    srvrupgwiz /m master_install_lang.ucf

    To verify that the installation was successful, review the log files. See About Reviewing the Log Files for Repository Import.

    TIP:   Locate the file master_install_lang.ucf in the $SIEBSRVR_ROOT/bin directory and print it out, so that you have a record of the values you entered.

12. You must now enable the multilingual list of values (MLOV) capability within Siebel Business Applications. For information on how to do this, see the Global Deployment Guide.
13. After you enable MLOV capability, proceed to Importing a New Language to Your Repository.
