Using a Different Data Source

You can use a different data source from the one specified in the [Local] section of the CFG file. Use the following procedure to do this.

To use a different data source

  1. In the [DataSources] section of the CFG file, add a statement for the new data source name.

    For example,

    NewDSN = NewDSN

  2. Under the [Local] section, create a new section for the new data source.

    You can copy the [Local] section and rename the section. For example,

    [NewDSN]

  3. Update the new section as appropriate and adjust the ConnectString parameter as necessary to read:

    ConnectString=ClientRootDir\NewDSN\sse_data.dbf -q -m -x NONE -gp 4096 -c40m -ch60m

  4. In the ODBC Data Source Administrator, add a new data source definition called NewDSN using the "Siebel Database ClientRootDir" driver.

    Specify Start line and Database file parameters in the Database tab as appropriate. For example,

    • Start line: ClientRootDir\bin\dbeng8.exe -q -m -x NONE -gp 4096 -c40m -ch60m
    • Database file: ClientRootDir\NewDSN\sse_data.dbf
  5. In the [Siebel] section of the CFG file, update the LocalDbODBCDataSource setting to point to the new location. For example,

    LocalDbODBCDataSource = NewDSN
