Siebel Server Installation Guide for UNIX > Introduction >

How This Guide Refers to Your Installation Directories

This guide uses the following variable naming conventions to refer to the installation directories either created by the installers or to which users navigate to access files and executables.

$SIEBEL_ROOT. Generally, this refers to the main directory in which software for each Siebel Server entity has been installed. The UNIX Enterprise Server component installers use /siebel as the default for $SIEBEL_ROOT.

$SIEBEL_HOME. This term refers to the installation or root directory for either Siebel eBusiness Applications software in general or the Siebel Server, depending on the context. Many scripts contain variables with this name; its meaning is most often derived from the context.

SIEBEL_SERVER_ROOT. This term is sometimes used within executables such as the siebel_server script as a synonym for $SIEBEL_HOME.
