Scenarios for Installing and Deploying Siebel Languages


This topic summarizes deployment scenarios when you plan to deploy multiple Siebel Language Packs for your Siebel Business Applications software. It is strongly recommended to include all of the languages that you might require when you first install the Siebel CRM software.

NOTE:  For detailed information about these scenarios, including prerequisites, limitations, installation and configuration instructions, and associated tasks performed for the Siebel database, see the Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using.

Consider the following scenarios for installing and deploying multiple Siebel Language Packs:

  • Install and deploy all of the languages you require once. For customers installing and deploying languages shipped with the current version of Siebel Business Applications, and who do not plan to deploy other languages at a later date. This option is easiest but might not be suitable for phased language deployments.
  • Install all of the languages you will require, but deploy some languages later. For customers installing and deploying languages shipped with the current version of Siebel Business Applications, but who plan to deploy some of the installed languages at a later date. This option might be suitable for phased language deployments.
  • Install and deploy additional languages in an existing deployment. For customers installing and deploying languages shipped with the current version of Siebel Business Applications, and who plan to install and deploy additional languages at a later date. This option might be suitable for some phased language deployments.

    NOTE:  For Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4 and later, to add languages into an existing installation of Siebel Enterprise Server or SWSE, you must use the installer of the same version and you must use the unattended installation (silent installation) method. Perform a patch installation (migration installation) before you install any additional languages. For more information, see the Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using.
