Deploying the Siebel Enterprise Cache Server

This procedure describes how to deploy the Siebel Enterprise Cache Server. You can deploy only one instance of Siebel Enterprise Cache Server in your Siebel deployment. This task is part of Configuring the Siebel Enterprise Cache.

This task is required for new installations, where you choose to use the Siebel Enterprise Cache. It is also required for the migration installation case, because this module is new in the current release and must be installed as a new installation.

NOTE:  After deployment, the Siebel Enterprise Cache Server profile is in a read-write state. You can update configuration settings and redeploy the profile to propagate the updates to the Siebel Enterprise Cache Server.
