Editing the siebel.ini Files for Unattended Installation

---

Before starting installation, you must modify two versions of the siebel.ini file. The first siebel.ini is for the main installer which is located within the same directory as the setupUNIX_OS executable (where UNIX_OS is the UNIX platform you are using). The second siebel.ini is used for configuration and is located under the configuration subdirectory; for example, ses/gtwysrvrcfg/siebel.ini.

To modify the siebel.ini file for the main installer

Using a text editor, modify the siebel.ini file for the appropriate product. The locations for each siebel.ini file are listed below.

NOTE:  You should pull a fresh copy of each siebel.ini to modify and save it in a unique location to avoid overwriting the original file.

Siebel Enterprise Server—unix_server_UNIX_OS_ses_base/ses/siebel.ini.
Siebel Web Server Extensions—unix_server_UNIX_OS_eapp_lep/eappweb/siebel.ini.
Siebel CORBA Object Manager—unix_server_UNIX_OS_corba_lep/corbaom/siebel.ini.

CAUTION:  Make sure that you have entered the correct values, because your entries are not validated by the installer.

Locate the [Dialog] section and set all keys, except the ones starting with uninst to no. This will disable all prompts.
Locate the [Defaults.*] section and set the values appropriate to your installation:
Set those products you want to install under [Defaults.ProductSelection].
Set the languages you want to install under [Defaults.LanguageSelection]; for example, if you want to install French then add the following line to this section.

FRA= yes

Locate the [Defaults.Unix] section and set the RootDirectory to the product installation root directory.
Locate the [RunAfter.Unix] section and update the relevant subsections as follows:
[ConfigGtwysrvr]

Condition  =  $(GatewaySelected)=yes
Execute  = ./gtwysrvrcfg/$(Launcher)

Arg = -is:javahome $(JavaHome) -args SS_SETUP_INI=gtwysrvrcfg_siebel.ini StringTable=$(UninstallPath)/table.txt

where:

gtwysrvrcfg_siebel.ini is the full path under which you want the installer to locate this configuration file.

[ConfigSiebsrvr]

Condition  =  $(SiebelSelected)= yes

Execute  =  ./siebsrvrcfg/$(Launcher)

Arg = -is:javahome $(JavaHome) -args SS_SETUP_INI=siebsrvrcfg_siebel.ini StringTable=$(UninstallPath)/table.txt

where:

siebsrvrcfg_siebel.ini is the full path under which you want the installer to locate this configuration file.

CAUTION:  Do not modify the table.txt file.

[ConfigUnixEappweb]

Condition = yes

Execute = ./config/$(Launcher)

Arg = -is:javahome $(JavaHome) -args SS_SETUP_INI=eapp_config_siebel.ini StringTable=$(UninstallPath)/table.txt

Where:

eapp_config_siebel.ini is the full path to the SWSE siebel.ini configuration file.

[ConfigUnixCorbaOM]

Condition = yes

Execute = ./config/$(Launcher)

Arg = -is:javahome $(JavaHome) -args SS_SETUP_INI=<Corba_OM_siebel.ini> StringTable=$(UninstallPath)/table.txt

Where:

Corba_OM_siebel.ini is the full path to the CORBA OM siebel.ini configuration file.

NOTE:  For more details on parameters in the configuration files, see Configuration siebel.ini File Parameter Values.

To modify the siebel.ini file for individual server configuration

Using a text editor, modify the appropriate siebel.ini file or files as listed below:

NOTE:  You should pull a fresh copy of each siebel.ini to modify and save it in a unique location to avoid overwriting the original file.

ses/gtwysrvrcfg— Siebel Gateway configuration; for example, unix_server_UNIX_OS_ses_base/ses/gtwysrvrcfg/siebel.ini.
ses/siebsrvrcfg—Siebel Server configuration; for example, unix_server_UNIX_OS_ses_base/ses/siebsrvrcfg/siebel.ini.
eappweb/config—Siebel Web Server Extension configuration; for example, unix_server_UNIX_OS_eapp_lep/eappweb/config/siebel.ini.
corbaom/config—Siebel CORBA Object Manager configuration; for example, unix_server_UNIX_OS_corba_lep/corbaom/config/siebel.ini.

CAUTION:  Make sure that you have entered the correct values, because your entries cannot be validated by the installer.

Set all keys in the [Dialog.Config] section to no.
Set all values in [Defaults.Config] to the appropriate values.

The PrimaryLanguage should be set to the three-letter language code for the desired language. For example, you should add PrimaryLanguage=ENU line for American English. Language codes are listed at the end of the siebel.ini file.

NOTE:  Refer to Configuration siebel.ini File Parameter Values for configuration values.
