Installing the Siebel EAI Connector Support Files

Complete the following steps to install the Siebel EAI Connector support files on each server machine, using the information you recorded in your copy of the worksheet in Deployment Planning Worksheet.

To install the Siebel EAI Connector support files

1. Open a new shell and navigate to the Siebel image location for the current software version. Then navigate to the directory where the installer is located.

   For example, for Solaris, navigate to Siebel_Image/Solaris/Server/Siebel_Enterprise_Server.

   where:

   • Siebel_Image = The directory for your version-specific Siebel network image, such as
     /Siebel_Install_Image/7.8.2.0.
2. Unset any Siebel-related environment variables, such as $SIEBEL_ROOT.
3. Enter the following command. Optionally, append any flags described in Additional Flags for Installation Commands.

   ./setupUNIX_OS

   The Installer Welcome screen appears.

4. Click Next.

   If you have installed other Siebel components of the same version on the same machine, the installer displays the message that an existing installation has been found.

5. Depending on whether you are installing your EAI files for the first time or adding a new language to an existing instance, take the appropriate action, then click Next:
   • To install the server software in a new instance, select None as the default and click Next. Proceed to Step 6.
   • To install a new language in an existing instance, select the displayed instance and click Next. Proceed to Step 8.

     For additional information about installing multiple Language Packs, see Siebel Server Installation Requirements.

     The Installer Path screen appears.
