Starting the Siebel Server Manager Command-Line Interface
This chapter describes how to use the Siebel Server Manager command-line interface, which is available on both the Windows and UNIX environments. The command-line interface of the Siebel Server Manager is the srvrmgr program. To start the srvrmgr program
- For Windows servers only: at the DOS prompt, change to the bin subdirectory within the Siebel Server root directory:
cd \SIEBSRVR_ROOT\bin
NOTE: You cannot use the Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) in the Siebel Server Manager command when specifying the path and machine names.
- Execute the srvrmgr program by using flags to specify the parameters that you want:
srvrmgr flags
For a list of srvrmgr flags, see Table 22.
- After the Siebel Server Manager has started, the prompt changes to:
srvrmgr:server_name>
The server_name parameter appears in the prompt only if you executed the srvrmgr program by specifying a Siebel Server using the -s flag, or after specifying a Siebel Server using the set server command.
For example, to start the srvrmgr program using the parameters specified in Table 21 on a Windows server, you would enter: srvrmgr /g gateway1 /e enterprise1 /s server1 /u sadmin /p sadmin
To start the srvrmgr program using the parameters specified in Table 21 on a UNIX server, you would enter: srvrmgr -g gateway1 -e enterprise1 -s server1 -u sadmin -p sadmin

The types of information logged include, for example, the command issued, command output, type of task, task status, start time, and end time. Use this flag with either the flag that specifies a command to log (c) or the flag that specifies an input file with numerous commands (i) . |
No |
/p |
-p |
password |
Siebel Server administrator password |
Yes |
/r |
-r |
|

No |
/s |
-s |
siebel_server |
Siebel Server name (the default is all servers). Launching srvrmgr using the /s flag connects the program only with that specific Siebel Server. All commands and user authentication are sent only to that Siebel Server. You cannot change the targeted Siebel Server in this mode. |
No |
/u |
-u |
username |
Siebel Server administrator username NOTE: The srvrmgr program expects the database to store user names in upper case format. User names are automatically converted to upper case during the authentication process and login issues result if database user names are stored in lower case.

Yes |
/z |
-z |
server_group_name |
Server group name. Launching srvrmgr using the /z flag connects the program to the specified server group and, as a result, all Siebel Servers assigned to the server group. For details on managing the assignment of Siebel Servers with server groups, see Server Group Management Commands. |
