Deploying DISA in Multi-User Environments

Desktop Integration Siebel Agent (DISA) provides a background service for Siebel applications by listening on a local port. However, on multi-user environments, because of a 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 computer.

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 in a multi-user environment involves the following steps:

  1. Deploying DISA on Agent computers.

  2. Making configurations on the Siebel Server side.
