Deploying DISA on Multi-User Environments

Desktop Integration Siebel Agent (DISA) provides background service for Siebel application by listening to a local port. However, on multi-user environments, because of system limitation, a DISA instance cannot share the same port for different users. Each instance of DISA requires a unique port number for each user on the same machine.

In a multi-user environment, DISA and Siebel server each can use a file to maintain the user-port map in place of the config.properties file and system preferences.

The deployment of DISA on a multi-user environment involves the following:

1. Deploy DISA on Agent machines.
2. Make configurations on the Siebel server side.
