Installing the CORBA Object Manager

---

Complete the following steps to install the CORBA Object Manager on each UNIX server.

To install the CORBA Object Manager

NOTE:  The following procedure is for installing the base product. For patch installation instructions, refer to Maintenance Release Guide provided with the patch.

Insert the UNIX_OS CORBA Object Manager Language Extension Pack 1 CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of the server

where:

UNIX_OS is your UNIX operating system, such as Solaris, HP-UX, or AIX.

Language is the language to be installed.

NOTE:  The volume label for the CD is seaUNIX_OScorbalep1 or siaUNIX_OScorbalep1, as applicable to the Siebel applications you are installing; it may not be required, depending on how you access the CD-ROM.

Navigate to the /corbaom directory on the CD-ROM:
Start the Siebel CORBA Object Manager installation process by entering the following command. Append any desired flag described in Installing in Console Mode:

./setupUNIX_OS

The Installer Welcome screen appears.

Click Next.

If you have installed other Siebel components on the same machine, the installer displays the message that an existing installation has been found.

Depending on whether you are installing your Siebel CORBA Object Manager files for the first time or adding a new language to an existing instance, take the appropriate action, then click Next:
To install the server software in a new instance, select None as the default and click Next. Proceed to Step 6.
To install a new language in an existing instance, select the displayed instance and click Next. Proceed to Step 9.

See also Installing Multiple Siebel Language Packs on the Siebel Server for important additional information on this topic.

The Installer Path screen appears.

Enter the fully qualified path to the installation directory and click Next.
The Installer Setup Type screen appears.
Choose the type of CORBA Object Manager installation to execute from the following options; then click Next to continue:
Typical. This setup option installs all Siebel CORBA Object Manager components except those displayed. Proceed to Step 9.
Compact. This setup option installs only those components necessary to run the Siebel CORBA Object Manager, but no additional components, help, or CORBA sample codes. Proceed to Step 9.
Custom. This setup option lets you customize your installation by choosing the specific components you want to install. Proceed to Step 9.

If you selected Custom, the Custom Installation Setup screen appears.

Select the components that you want to install; in other words, decide whether or not you want to install the Sample Clients and IDL (Interface Definition Language) and click Next.

Siebel Systems IDL defines the interfaces it provides through the CORBA Object Manager.

The language selection screen appears.

Choose the language or languages you intend to install for CORBA Object Manager on the server; then click Next.

All servers are installed with at least one language, the primary(base) language. Additional languages can be installed at a later date, if desired. When installing languages at a later date, you must also re-install any patches that have been run on the directory. For more information, see Global Deployment Guide.

NOTE:  In a Unicode-enabled database environment, you can install any of the available Siebel language packs. In a non-Unicode database environment, you must consider the correlation of the language packs you want to install and the characters supported by your database code page. For example, in a Western European code page database, you can only install Western European language packs such as English, French, Spanish, or German language packs. And in a Japanese code page database, you can only install Japanese or English language packs.

For a list of supported code pages and encoding strategies, see System Requirements and Supported Platforms.

The Installation Verification screen appears.

Verify the settings and click Next. Which screen appears next depends on whether you are installing one or multiple languages.
If you are installing more than one language, the Primary Language screen appears. Proceed to Step 11.
If you are installing only one language, the Database Selection screen appears. Proceed to Step 12.
Choose the primary(base) language and click Next.

NOTE:  This is the primary(base) language for your Enterprise. It is the language in which you want your Siebel Server to run and which you normally want to read messages.

The Database Selection screen appears.

Choose the appropriate database and click Next.

The Database Alias or Connection String screen appears.

Enter the database alias or connection string, as described below, and click Next.

DB2 UDB. Enter the database alias for your Siebel Database, for example, db2345.

Oracle. Enter the valid Oracle connection string for your database.

The Database Table Owner screen appears.

Enter the database table owner for the Siebel tables and click Next.

The Installer Verification screen appears.

Verify the settings:
To apply the settings, click Next.
To make any changes, use the Back button to go back and update any parameters. You can use the Next button to return to this screen and confirm your new values; then click Next.

The Settings Progress screen appears as the Configuration Wizard configures the software.

The Configuration Wizard displays the message that the Siebel CORBA Object Manager has been successfully installed.

Click Finish.
