Siebel Database Server
The database server stores data for users, with both stationary and mobile Web clients.
The database server contains:
- Siebel applications metadata
- Siebel applications tables that store user data
- A master transaction log table that stores changes made since the last database extraction, provided that the changes are accomplished using Siebel software. Direct SQL modification of Siebel tables is not supported. SQL changes that are executed outside the Siebel application are not recorded in the Master Transaction Log and therefore will not be routed to mobile clients.
The Transaction Processor and Transaction Router components of Siebel Remote, which run on the Siebel Remote server, route the transactions from the master transaction log to the outbox directories of mobile Web clients. The Transaction Processor purges rows from the log after transactions from S_DOCK_TXN_LOG have been written into DX files in the txnproc directory. Do not directly modify the contents or structure of the master transaction log under any conditions.
CAUTION: Truncation of the S_DOCK_TXN_LOG table in a Server Database causes the txn_id values assigned to new transactions to be reset. However, the corresponding txn_id values in the S_DOCK_STATUS table are not reset. Consequently, new transactions inserted into the S_DOCK_TXN_LOG table will have a txn_id mismatch as compared to the values in the S_DOCK_STATUS table. Transaction Processor will not process these transactions and will purge them from the S_DOCK_TXN_LOG table.
If the S_DOCK_TXN_LOG table is truncated, then all mobile Web clients must be reextracted and all existing transactions and the local database must be deleted before the these clients can be reinitialized.
