Applying the SWSE Logical Profile

This procedure describes the steps for applying a logical profile to a specific installed instance of SWSE. You perform the same procedure for each SWSE. This task is a step in Process of Configuring the Siebel Web Server Extension.

NOTE:  When the SWSE and the Web server are on a different computer from the Siebel Gateway Name Server (as is typical), then, after creating the profile as described in Configuring the SWSE Logical Profile, you must either copy the profile directory to the Web server computer or provide remote access to the directory for the task described in this topic. For example, on Windows you might map the profile directory to the applicable drive on the remote computer.

This task is required both for new installations of the current release and for migration installations from any applicable release prior to Siebel Innovation Pack 2016. For more information, see Additional Tasks for Migration Installations and About Configuring Siebel Business Applications.

On Microsoft Windows with Microsoft IIS, you can precustomize which virtual directories to create on the Web server. For more information, see Creating Custom Virtual Directories. When you configure the SWSE and add new virtual directories, existing virtual directories are not deleted.

For information about where the virtual directories are created on Microsoft IIS, see Verifying the Siebel Virtual Directories on the Web Server. For information about supported versions of Microsoft IIS, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support. See also Installing the Web Server.
