This chapter describes the tasks to install and configure the Siebel Reports Server and related components. It includes the following topics:

• Process of Installing Siebel Reports Server
• About the Siebel Reports Server
• Preinstallation Tasks for the Siebel Reports Server
• Installing the Siebel Reports Server
• Confirming a Successful Installation of the Actuate iServer Components
• Postinstallation Tasks for the Siebel Reports Server
• Testing the Siebel Reports Server from the Siebel Web Client
• How to Implement Clustering with the Siebel Reports Server
• Installing Additional Modules

The same instance of the Siebel Reports Server allows the generation of reports in multiple languages.

The Actuate iServer does not run reports based on the regional settings of the host machine. Instead, it refers to the localemap.xml file (located in the etc folder of the Actuate iServer installation directory). For more information on configuring the iServer locales, see the Administering Actuate iServer System manual in the Actuate folder of the Siebel eBusiness Third-Party Bookshelf CD-ROM.

Except where noted, the installation instructions in this chapter supersede the information in Actuate documentation.
