Unique Synchronization Directory on Siebel Server

The Siebel Server uses a location on the server to store users' extracted files and state information. Each user and mobile application combination has a unique synchronization directory. The Application Directory user parameter enables the administrator to define this location. For information about setting the Application Directory user parameter, see Configuring the Application Directory Setting.

By defining a shared location for this parameter, synchronization services for Siebel Mobile disconnected applications can be load-balanced. When users request a synchronization session, their request is directed (by a load-balancer) to an available Siebel Server hosting the appropriate Application Object Manager for Siebel Mobile, which will be able to access the users’ synchronization directory. For example, a Siebel Mobile disconnected application can be configured to point to a generic URL for synchronization.
