This feature allows multiple developers to work against the same repository objects in the Siebel database. As of Siebel CRM 17.0, the Siebel Repository File (SRF) is no longer applicable, and is replaced by the Siebel runtime repository in the Siebel database. A workspace in Siebel Tools provides a developer user with a sandbox in which to make changes to repository data. The feature makes sure that a developer's work is isolated from that of other developers making changes to either the same objects or other objects of the application. Repository updates made in the developer's environment can be published and tested without affecting other developers, until all updates are coordinated and published and delivered to the runtime repository for all Siebel Servers and Siebel Mobile Web Clients in test and production environments. For more information about using the workspaces feature in Siebel Tools, see Using Siebel Tools. NOTE: Workspaces are an alternative to using local databases to make changes to repository data. All Siebel Tools developers in a given Siebel development environment must either use a local database or use workspaces. Workspaces is a feature of both Siebel Tools and of Siebel Web Tools. Siebel Web Tools, a browser-based alternative to the traditional Siebel Tools client, uses an Application Object Manager component and the server database instead of a local database. For more information, see Using Siebel Tools. For Siebel CRM 18.12 Update, customers currently using Siebel CRM 17.x or 18.x releases must run the new Workspace Ranking (WSRanking) utility on their development database. For more information, see About Database Updates for Siebel CRM 18.12 Update. NOTE: Siebel Tools and Siebel Web Tools always use the standard Siebel Repository provided for the current release. You can optionally configure Siebel Application Object Managers and Siebel Mobile Web Client to use the same standard Siebel Repository for troubleshooting purposes. To do so, set the EnableSafeboot parameter to True for Siebel Application Object Managers and Siebel Mobile Web Clients. For Siebel Mobile Web Clients, you set this parameter in the [InfraObjMgr] section of the application configuration file, such as uagent.cfg for Siebel Call Center. Related TopicsRelated Books |
