Session vs. Sessionless Mode

You can run the Siebel EAI Adapter in either session or sessionless mode. When running in the default Sessionless mode, every message posted to Siebel is enveloped with the login method, negating the need for an explicit login. By contrast, when Siebel runs in Session mode, the collaboration must include both a login method at beginning and a logout method at the end. Session mode allows you to post multiple messages to Siebel within a loop between a single login and logoff statement. Session mode is only supported using the Java Collaboration Definition (JCD). You cannot use Session mode when using business processes in eInsight.
