Modifying the Project Synchronization Behavior


In mobile mode, Siebel synchronization updates the projects from the server database to the local database. When the end user clicks Get Advice, the Siebel application updates the project from the local database and publishes it under the project Publish directory.

In connected mode, there is no need to do a Siebel sync because you are connected to the server database. When the end user clicks Get Advice, the Siebel application updates the project from the server database and publishes it under the project Publish directory.

By default, the project is synchronized when the end user accesses the project in both mobile and connected modes. Two configuration variables are provided to modify this synchronization behavior in connected mode:

  • ISSCDAAutoDeployment
  • ISSCDADeploymentMode

Although these variables are active in mobile mode, it is not recommended that you modify them in mobile mode.

Disabling Automatic Project Synchronization

If you are developing and modifying projects on the server, you may want to disable automatic synchronization.

To disable automatic project synchronization

  1. In your Siebel application configuration file (for example, uagent.cfg for Call Center), search for [ISSCDA].
  2. Under this section, add the following line:

    ISSCDAAutoDeployment =FALSE

  3. Save the file.
  4. Restart the application.

Synchronizing All Projects When Get Advice is Clicked

If your end users want to synchronize all projects with one click, you can change the ISSCDADeploymentMode variable. By default, this variable is set to ONDEMAND and projects get synchronized to the project Publish directory only when the user accesses a project.

To synchronize all projects when Get Advice is clicked

  1. In your Siebel application configuration file (for example, uagent.cfg for Call Center), search for [ISSCDA].
  2. Under this section, add the following line:

    ISSCDADeploymentMode =ALL

  3. Save the file.
  4. Restart the Siebel application.
