How This Guide Refers to Your Installation Directories

This guide uses the following variable-naming conventions to refer to the installation directories either created by the installers or to which users navigate to access files and executable programs.

SIEBEL_HOME. The installation or root directory for Siebel eBusiness Applications software in general or the Siebel Gateway Name Server or the Siebel Server, depending on the context. Many scripts contain variables with this name; its meaning is most often derived from the context.

SWEAPPS_ROOT. The directory into which you install the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE).

SIEBEL_CLIENT_ROOT. The directory into which you install the Siebel Mobile Web Client.
