Implementing Siebel Business Applications on DB2 UDB for z/OS > Installing the Siebel Database on the DB2 Host > About the Siebel Database and the Database Configuration UtilitiesThe Siebel Database on the DB2 host stores the data used by Siebel Business Applications. Siebel Server components (particularly Application Object Managers supporting Siebel Web Clients), Siebel Developer Web Clients and Siebel Tools Clients connect directly to the Siebel Database and make changes in real time. Siebel Mobile Web Clients download a subset of the server data to use locally, and periodically synchronize with the Siebel Database through the Siebel Server (Siebel Remote components) to update both the local database and the Siebel Database. The Database Configuration Utilities (formerly Siebel Database Server) comprise a set of files that you install on a Siebel Server machine. These files are accessed when you run the Database Configuration Wizard and the Siebel Upgrade Wizard to install and configure the Siebel Database (Siebel Schema and seed data) on the DB2 host, or to perform operations on the Siebel database after it is installed. The topics in this chapter describe how to install the Siebel Database using the Database Configuration Wizard and the Upgrade Wizard. It is assumed that you have already installed and configured the Siebel Enterprise Server components (Gateway Name Server, Enterprise Server, Siebel Server) and have installed the Database Configuration Utilities. For information on these tasks, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. NOTE: The Database Configuration Utilities installed software has no run-time role in managing database operations for users running Siebel Business Applications. For information on starting the Database Configuration Wizard, see Running the Database Configuration Wizard. Some of the tasks you can perform with the Database Configuration Wizard are for upgrade scenarios only and are described in Siebel Database Upgrade Guide and Siebel Database Upgrade Guide for DB2 UDB for z/OS. |
