Modifying Siebel Search Parameters for Installation of Hummingbird on an Existing Siebel Server

Table 7 shows the Siebel Search Parameters and display names, and provides a definition for each. Typically, you will not need to modify these parameters. They are configured at the time of the installation by the Siebel Installation Wizard if Hummingbird is installed before you installed the Siebel Server. However, again, if you install Hummingbird after the Siebel Server installation, you will have to manually set some of these parameters. If you want to access these parameters, you access them in the configuration files, or in the name server shared memory.

The SearchDefName is different from other parameters because it is a server level parameter in the Siebel Server. For more information, see To view of modify parameters on the server.

The Server parameters are stored in the siebns.dat file. The parameter changes should be set in this Server parameter file.

To view of modify parameters on the server

1. On the Siebel Server where Hummingbird is installed, navigate to Administration - Server Configuration > Servers.
2. Highlight the Siebel Server which serves as your dedicated search server.
3. Set the following parameters:
   • Search - Install Directory = <Hummingbird Root Dir>
   • Search - Remote Server = FALSE.

     If you set this parameter to TRUE, the Index and Refresh buttons will be disabled in the Search Index Administration screen.

     NOTE:  If Search - Install Directory is not specified correctly, you will not be able to access Search Indices view or any valid Search Categories in Search Center.

To access parameters for a Mobile Client

You change these parameters for a mobile client under the [SIEBEL] section of the application configuration file.

NOTE:  If you are not implementing Siebel Search, you must set the following component parameters under the [SIEBEL] section of the application configuration file, or in the name server shared memory:

• SearchEngine = CHANGE_ME
• RemoteSearchServer = FALSE

To access these parameters on the Siebel Developer Web Client or Mobile Web client you go to the configuration files. For example, in the Bin\enu\uagent.cfg file for the Call Center application, you see these parameters under the [SIEBEL] section.

NOTE:  The display name appears in the Administration - Server Configuration Screen in the Siebel Server.

NOTE:  To view or modify the remaining three parameters, navigate to Administration - Server Configuration > Servers > Server Parameters. These parameters are not enterprise level parameters. Therefore, two servers in the enterprise may have different values. For example, in order to share the same enterprise information you install two Siebel Servers on two different machines, then you can choose to have different Hummingbird installation directories. In this case, the directory SearchInstallDir will have different values.
