Configuring Message Broadcast Caching

The following task describes how to configure your Siebel Business Applications to take advantage of message broadcast caching. For information about activating the Check New Broadcast Message workflow policy, see Siebel Business Process Framework: Workflow Guide.

NOTE:  Message Broadcast administration is not supported on Mobile Web Clients when message broadcasting caching is enabled. Make additions, edits, and deletions to the Message Broadcasts list only when connected to the server.

To configure message broadcast caching

1. Navigate to the Administration - Server Configuration screen, then the Enterprises view.
2. From the Enterprise Servers list, select the enterprise server that runs the Siebel application with message broadcasting settings you want to modify.
3. Navigate to the Component Definitions view, and select a component with a Component Type value of Application Object Manager.
4. In the Component Parameters list, select the Application Enable Message Broadcast Cache parameter, and type TRUE in the Value field.

   For details on how to configure the server component, or Siebel Application Object Manager, parameters, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

   NOTE:  The default value for the Application Message Broadcast Cache Size parameter is 100. You probably do not have to increase this value. The minimum cache size is the ratio [refresh rate for the message bar or notification pane] / [message update interval]. For example, if the refresh rate is every 120 seconds, and the message update interval is every 10 seconds, then set the cache size parameter to at least 12.

5. Enable message broadcast caching for Developer Web Clients (if any), and add or edit the EnableMsgbroadcastCache parameter in the [Siebel] section in your Siebel application's CFG file as follows:

   EnableMsgbroadcastCache = TRUE
