Testing and Storing the Mobile Repository

Test the mobile repository, and then store it in the mobile application metadata directory for the appropriate application. For the retail business scenario in Creating and Testing Tables and Indexes in the SQL Anywhere Database this would be D:\SiebelAnalyticsData\Mobile\Retail\app. For a description of mobile directories, see About the Mobile Directory Structure.

The following is a list of high-level steps that you might use to help you test your mobile repository:

• Identify a machine to test the mobile repository. This machine can either be an network server or a laptop.
• Install the mobile client on this machine. The installation creates a mobile version of the Analytics Server that is scaled for single use.
• Create the mobile database on this machine by using dbisqlc.exe to manually create the tables.
• Deploy the mobile repository on the enterprise server by editing the nqsconfig.ini file to point to the mobile repository. For more information about the NQSConfig.INI file parameters, see Siebel Business Analytics Platform Installation and Configuration Guide.
• Use the mobile client to connect to the server (the default DSN name is Analytics Web) and view the schema.

  CAUTION:  Do not try to use Siebel Business Analytics Web yet.

• Run a sample logical SQL report based on the Presentation layer. No data will be returned because you have not populated the tables. However, this task allows you to test the integrity of your repository.
