Installing Additional Siebel Servers for an Existing Siebel Enterprise Server

Before creating additional Siebel Servers, you should have installed and configured your Web server, and installed and configured the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) plug-in. Doing this allows you to test the connection to the additional servers. For information about installing the SWSE, see Installing the Siebel Web Server Extension.

Run the Siebel Enterprise Server installer to install Siebel Servers on additional machines in your Siebel Enterprise.

Alternatively, you can use the Siebel Software Configuration Wizard to create an additional Siebel Server on a single machine where Siebel Server is already installed, as described in Configuring the Siebel Server.

NOTE:  Creating multiple Siebel Servers on a single machine is typically done only for test or development purposes. In your production environment, it is strongly recommended that you create only one Siebel Server per machine.

Enabling Siebel Remote for Multiple Siebel Servers on a Machine

When installing multiple Siebel Servers on a single machine, normally only the first Siebel Server installed can be configured to support Siebel Remote. If you need to enable Siebel Remote on each Siebel Server, install these Siebel Servers into separate directories, so that they do not share the same installation files.
