UNIX Paths

The following environment variables and path conventions specify file system locations in the topics in this guide:

  • SIEBEL_ROOT is an environment variable that defines the absolute path of the Siebel Server installation directory. When you install a Siebel Server, the installation program queries for the installation directory and installs the Siebel Server in a subdirectory of this path called siebsrvr. For example, if you specified usr/siebel as the installation directory, then $SIEBEL_ROOT is /usr/siebel/siebsrvr.

    The definition of SIEBEL_ROOT and other environment variables required for doing an upgrade are located in /siebsrvr/siebenv.sh. The Siebel Server installation script sets environment variable definitions in this shell script. Do not edit or delete this file.

    Tip: Before performing command line procedures, source siebenv.csh or siebenv.sh first. This refreshes the environment variables required to run commands.

  • DBSRVR_ROOT is a path convention used in this guide. It is not an environment variable and is not defined in siebenv.csh orsiebenv.sh.

    DBSRVR_ROOT is the absolute path to the Siebel Database Configuration Utilities files on the Siebel Server. When you install the Siebel Database Configuration Utilities, the installation program queries for the Siebel Server installation directory and installs the Siebel Database Configuration Utilities files at the same level in a subdirectory called dbsrvr. For example, if $SIEBEL_ROOT is usr/siebel/siebsrvr, then DBSRVR_ROOT is /usr/siebel/dbsrvr.

  • Run UNIX scripts in a C or Korn shell.
