About Server Component Groups
Component groups are functional areas that involve logical groupings of Siebel Server components and multiple operating system processes. A component group consists of one or more components, which might be running in one or more operating system processes. Component groups act as:
- The unit of deployment on, or assignment to, a Siebel Server. In general, you include in a Siebel Server the group of components that are deployed on one or more servers.
- A unit for monitoring functionality of the interrelated components within the group (you can get a summary of the operational status at the component group status, which is determined by the individual states of the constituent components).
- A unit of control, whereby you can make available or unavailable the interrelated components in a single step, such as Siebel Remote or Workflow Management.
Siebel Business Applications provide several predefined component groups. For a list of the components contained within each component group, see Siebel Server Component Groups. For information about creating your own component groups, see Creating a Custom Siebel Server Component Group.
