Installing Siebel Server for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization

This task is a step in "Roadmap for Setting Up Siebel Mobile Disconnected Applications". The components that are required for Siebel Mobile disconnected applications are installed when you install the Siebel Server. This topic includes the following information:

• "Installing the Components for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization Using the Siebel Server Installer"

• "Siebel Server Component Parameters for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization"

• Add the remote installation for Siebel Mobile disconnected applications

  For information about enabling the component groups for Siebel Mobile, see "Enabling the Component Groups for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Applications" and "Setting Up the Disconnected Mobile Synchronization Component Group".

For information about installing and configuring Siebel Server, see Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using for the operating system you are using.

Installing the Components for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization Using the Siebel Server Installer

Install the Siebel Server, following the instructions in the Siebel Server installation guide for the operating system you are using. When you reach the Setup Type screen in the Installer wizard, you are presented with three installation options:

• Typical. This setup option installs all Siebel Server components.

• Compact. This setup option installs only those components necessary to run the Siebel Server but no additional components or help.

• Custom. This setup option lets you customize your installation by choosing the specific components that you want to install.

To install the components for Siebel Mobile disconnected application synchronization with your Siebel Server installation 

1. During the Siebel Server installation, when the Setup Type screen appears, choose the Custom setting, and then click Next.

   
   

   Note: At this screen, you can also choose a different directory for your Siebel Server installation.

   
   

2. From the following components, choose Handheld Synchronization:

   • Siebel Application Object Manager Component

   • Handheld Synchronization

   • Siebel Data Quality Connector

   • Remote Search Support

   • Siebel Java Integrator

3. Click Next.

   Continue with the installation in the Siebel Installation Guide for the operating system you are using. The installation wizard automatically installs and configures the components for server synchronization.

Siebel Server Component Parameters for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization

Some common mobile applications, such as Siebel Pharma, are preconfigured by default. If you want to configure additional applications, see "Configuring Siebel Server for Siebel Mobile Disconnected Application Synchronization" for more information. You must add the synchronization server component (application object manager for the Siebel Mobile disconnected application) that you installed and configured to reflect your company's environment. See Table 6-1 for a list of the required parameters. For information on adding server components for server synchronization, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

Table 6-1 Siebel Server Component Parameters for Server Synchronization
