Installing the Server Clustering Feature


Analytics License: All licenses.

Operating Systems: All.

This task is part of the Process of Installing the Siebel Analytics Server Clustering Feature.

Perform the following procedure on each computer that is to host a Siebel Analytics cluster controller.

To install the clustering feature

  1. Run the Siebel Analytics installer wizard according to the procedure in Installing Siebel Analytics.

    In the wizard Setup Type window, select one of the following options, depending on the Siebel Analytics components you want to install on that particular computer:

    • Server
    • Complete
    • Custom

      For example, if a computer hosts both a Siebel Analytics Server and a Cluster Controller, select the Custom option, and then select the Siebel Analytics Cluster feature. All other features are selected by default in this screen.

  2. Complete the installation.
  3. Reboot the computer when prompted.

    NOTE:  Using the default configuration created by the installation process, the Cluster Controllers fail to start. This failure to start is addressed in later steps in this procedure.

  4. Copy any required repository files to the Repository subdirectory in the Siebel Analytics software installation directory on each computer.

    NOTE:  All Siebel Analytics Servers in the cluster must have identical copies of all repository files.

  5. Install and configure any necessary relational database access packages.

    For example, sites using SQL Server need to configure SQL Server DSN referenced by the repositories.
