Siebel Server Installation Guide for UNIX > Implementing Load-Balancing with Central Dispatch >

Installation Tasks for Central Dispatch


You must install Central Dispatch on each Siebel Server on which you want to employ load-balancing, and on any machines that will be dedicated for the Central Dispatch primary scheduler and backup scheduler.

NOTE:  Make sure you have the Resonate Administrative Mode account and Resonate Monitor Mode account created as described in Preparing for the Installation.

To install Central Dispatch

  1. Log on to the server and open a terminal window.
  2. Navigate to the following directory on the AIX|Solaris|HP-UX Server Ancillary Programs (CD 2 of 2) CD-ROM:
  3. aix|solaris|hpux/enu/resonate/unix

    Central Dispatch installation is not language-dependent. Navigate to the enu directory regardless of the language in which you are deploying your Siebel applications.

    NOTE:  The volume label for the CD is seaUNIX_OSanc2; it may not be required, depending on how you access the CD-ROM.

  4. Log on as root.
  5. Start the Central Dispatch installation script by entering:
  6. ./install-cd-commander

  7. Follow the instruction in the Resonate Central Dispatch and Resonate Commander Installation Guide, available on the Siebel eBusiness Third-Party Bookshelf. However, at the Select Component screen, select only the following Central Dispatch components:
  8. Check the value for RESONATE_ROOT in your siebenv.sh. The RESONATE_ROOT should be set to the actual Resonate install directory and not symbolic link; for example, /Export/Home/Resonate/.
  9. Repeat the installation steps in all the nodes that will be part of the Central Dispatch site, including the Primary Scheduler, Backup Scheduler, and all Siebel Server nodes.
