About the Server Manager GUI

The Siebel Server Manager graphical user interface (GUI) consists of the views in the following server administration screens, which are available from the application Site Map:

• Administration - Server Configuration
• Administration - Server Management
• Server Jobs

NOTE:  The Siebel Server Manager GUI screens allow you to use only the query operator LIKE.

In general, use the Siebel Server Manager GUI to perform most administrative tasks, because it provides a more intuitive view into the operation of Siebel Servers than does the command-line interface.

NOTE:  By default, the Siebel Server Manager GUI is available on every Siebel client, and is accessible to users with Siebel administrator responsibility. This feature allows Siebel administrators to perform administration tasks from any client on the network. Therefore, it is important to grant the Siebel administrator responsibility only to designated Siebel administrators.

About the Process Failure Diagnostics View

The Administration - Server Management screen contains the Process Failure Diagnostics view, which you can use for investigating process failures for Siebel Server components. You access this view by selecting Diagnostics from the link bar.
