Components of Siebel Replication Manager

This section lists the various pieces of software involved in setting up Regional Databases and in the normal operations of a Siebel Replication Manager implementation. For details on the listed components or utilities, see Starting and Stopping Siebel Remote Server Components.

Applicable components and utilities for the relevant Headquarters Node, Regional Node, and Mobile Web Client are listed below for each of two cases:

• Regional Node without Mobile Web Clients or child Regional Nodes
• Regional Node with Mobile Web Clients or child Regional Nodes

Without Mobile Web Clients or Child Regional Nodes

For a Regional Node that has no Mobile Web Clients or child Regional Nodes, the following components and utilities are involved:

• On the Headquarters Server's Siebel Server, with references for descriptions:
  • Transaction Processor. See Transaction Processor.
  • Transaction Router. See Transaction Router.
  • Transaction Merger. See Transaction Merger.
  • Synchronization Manager. See Synchronization Manager.
  • Database Extract (dbxtract). See Database Extract.
  • Generate New Database (gennewdb). See Running the Generate New Database Component.
  • Parallel Database extract (pdbxtract). A version of the database extract component that invokes extractions in parallel. It is designed as an interactive component, using server infrastructure features to perform the tasks of data extractions in parallel for a large regional node. For more information, see Extracting the Regional Database.
• On the Regional Server's Siebel Server:
  • Regional Database Initialization (srvrinit). Program that loads dbxtract onto the Regional server.
  • Replication Agent (repagent). Server component that replicates the database to a Regional Node, according to the assigned Routing Group.

With Mobile Web Clients or Child Regional Nodes

For a Regional Node that has either Mobile Web Clients or child Regional Nodes, or both, the following components and utilities are involved:

• On the Headquarters Server's Siebel Server:
  • Transaction Processor
  • Transaction Router
  • Transaction Merger
  • Synchronization Manager
  • Database Extract (dbxtract)
  • Parallel Database Extract (pdbxtract)
  • Generate New Database (gennewdb)
• On the Regional Server's Siebel Server:
  • Regional Database Initialization (srvrinit)
  • Replication Agent (repagent)
  • Transaction Processor
  • Transaction Router
  • Transaction Merger
  • Synchronization Manager
  • Database Extract (dbxtract)
  • Parallel Database Extract (pdbxtract)
  • Generate New Database (gennewdb)
