Siebel Server Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows > 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.
Also consider the following guidelines:
- You cannot install Central Dispatch on a server on which Microsoft Cluster Service is enabled.
- Install Central Dispatch from the Windows Console only. Do not use any remote connection such as Terminal Services, Remote Desktop, or PCAnywhere
- Install Central Dispatch in a directory separate from other Siebel entities.
CAUTION: Do not use Microsoft Terminal Services to remotely install Central Dispatch. Central Dispatch installs a network driver that may interrupt the network connection during installation, thereby terminating Central Dispatch installation prematurely.
To install Central Dispatch
- Insert the Windows Server Ancillary Programs CD 2 into the CD-ROM drive of a machine on which you will install Central Dispatch.
- Navigate to the following directory:
windows_server_ancillary
_2\Thirdpty\resonate\enu\win2k
NOTE: Central Dispatch installation is not language-dependent. Navigate to the
enu
directory regardless of the language in which you are deploying your Siebel applications.- Start the Central Dispatch installer by double-clicking
SETUP.EXE,
and when the Welcome dialog box appears, click Next.- 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:
- Node
- Management Tools
- CDAction
- Dispatch Manager
NOTE: If you find any discrepancies between the information provided in this guide and the Resonate third-party documentation, always follow the instructions provided in this guide.
- 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.
