Installing and Using the Siebel Sample Database

The Siebel Sample Database contains example data of various kinds to help you understand how Siebel Business Applications work. You install the Sample Database for the Siebel Mobile Web Client (or the Siebel Developer Web Client). This database, like the local database used with the Siebel Mobile Web Client, is based on SQL Anywhere.

NOTE:  Installation of the Siebel Sample Database is optional and applies to the Siebel Mobile Web Client. Before you can install the Sample Database, you must install the Siebel Mobile Web Client, as described in Installing the Siebel Web Client.

For platform requirements for installing and using Siebel Web Clients and the Siebel Sample Database, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support. For information about installation path requirements, see File and Directory Naming Conventions.

After you have installed the Siebel Sample Database, you can run Siebel demo applications, such as those described in Siebel Web Client Shortcuts and Startup Options. You can also customize shortcuts, as described in the same topic.

NOTE:  Before you install the current release as a new installation of Siebel Sample Database, you must uninstall the existing installed Siebel Sample Database, if present.
