Siebel Tools ODBC Data Sources
To create system data sources, you must modify the SystemDSN parameter in the siebel.ini file before running the Siebel Tools installation. For information about how to modify the SystemDSN parameter in the siebel.ini file, see Siebel Web Client Administration Guide.
The Siebel Tools Installer creates the ODBC data sources described in Table 1. By default, these are created as user data sources, which are visible only to the user account under which Siebel Tools is installed.
The following limitation must be understood to successfully install Siebel Tools.
- A name for the local database that is too long (for example,
SSD LOCAL DB M:/SIEBEL/10910/TOOLS
) results in a data source that does not appear in the Control Panel ODBC Administration applet, and in the failure of such Siebel Tools operations as checkout. The total length of the data source name must be not more than 32 characters.
