About the Siebel ADM Client Environments

The Siebel Application Deployment Manager (ADM) client environments include a command-line interface program and GUI applications that you use to create and manage a deployment of application customizations between environments. Other traditional Siebel application interfaces are also available to assist with ADM deployments. The ADM client environments are:

• Siebel ADM screen. The Siebel ADM screen (Application Deployment Manager screen in the Siebel Web Client) assists in the creation of ADM deployment units for any database data types that make up an ADM package. You can also use this screen to deploy ADM database types. For more information about this interface, see "About the ADM Screen".

• Siebel Server Manager (srvrmgr) command-line interface. This command-line interface administers the Siebel Server. You can also use this interface to deploy ADM database data types.

  For more information about:

  • Deploying ADM database types, see "Deploying ADM Sessions to a File Using the Command-Line Interface".

  • Using the Siebel Server command-line interface, see Siebel System Administration Guide.

About the ADM Screen

This topic is part of "About the Siebel ADM Client Environments".

The Application Deployment Manager (ADM) GUI consists of a screen and views from the Siebel application site map. The screen name is Application Deployment Manager, and from this screen you create deployment units consisting only of ADM database data types.

Deployment units form the ADM package used to deploy application customizations. For more information about creating ADM database type deployment units using the ADM GUI, see Chapter 4, "Migrating Customizations Using Siebel ADM."

The ADM GUI also facilitates the deployment of ADM database types. For more information about this deployment option, see "Deploying an ADM Session or Export File".
