The port number of the Siebel Gateway Name Server for the source instance or target instance.

Language

Creating a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

Source Enterprise Name

Creating a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

The name of the Siebel Enterprise for the source instance.

Specify the Siebel Enterprise name if you are exporting the Siebel Enterprise configuration when you create the clone. Do this if deploying the clone will also create a new Siebel Gateway Name Server on the target computer. To export the Siebel Enterprise configuration, you also must specify Export Enterprise = Y.

If no value is provided, then no Siebel Enterprise configuration is exported when you create the clone.

Source Siebel Server Name

Creating a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

The name of the Siebel Server for the source instance.

Specify the Siebel Server name if you are exporting the Siebel Server configuration when you create the clone. This is the expected usage case for cloning a Siebel Server. To export the Siebel Server configuration, you must specify Export Siebel Server = Y.

If no value is provided, then no Siebel Server configuration is exported when you create the clone.

Export Enterprise

Creating a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

The possible values are:

• Y. Exports the Siebel Enterprise configuration when you create a clone. This setting assumes that the Siebel Enterprise has been defined for the source instance and is specified using Source Enterprise Name. The Siebel Gateway Name Server must be running when you create the clone.
• N. Does not export the Siebel Enterprise configuration when you create a clone.

This setting cannot be null.

Export Siebel Server

Creating a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

The possible values are:

• Y. Exports the Siebel Server configuration when you create a clone. This setting assumes that the Siebel Server is running on the source instance and is specified using Source Siebel Server Name. The Siebel Gateway Name Server must be running when you create the clone.
• N. Does not export the Siebel Server configuration when you create a clone.

This setting cannot be null.

Target Enterprise Name

Deploying a clone (for Siebel Enterprise Server only)

The name of the Siebel Enterprise for the target instance. This setting cannot be null.

If you exported the Siebel Enterprise configuration when you created the clone, then set Target Enterprise Name to match the setting you used for Source Enterprise Name. In this case, you are creating a new Siebel Gateway Name Server on the target computer. To import the Siebel Enterprise configuration, you must specify Import Enterprise = Y and set Create Gateway = Y.

If an existing Siebel Gateway Name Server runs on a computer that is different from the target computer, then specify the name of an existing Siebel Enterprise and point to an existing Siebel Gateway Name Server, which must be running. In this case, you are not creating the Siebel Gateway Name Server on the target computer. You must set Import Enterprise = N and Create Gateway = N.
