Using Load Balancing with the Connect String

You can use Siebel native load balancing across Siebel Servers with the following Siebel object interface: Siebel Java Data Bean

To use load balancing with the connect string

  1. Modify the predefined connect string so that it directs requests to an appropriate virtual host.

    This host includes specific Siebel Servers. Each Siebel Server includes the required object manager.

  2. Specify the path to the file that defines the virtual host.

Connect String That Uses Load Balancing with Siebel Java Data Bean

A connect string that uses native Siebel load balancing with Siebel Java Data Bean uses the following format:

host="siebel://VirtualHost/EnterpriseServer/AppObjMgr_lang"

If you use Java code to connect to the Siebel Server, then Siebel CRM reads virtual host definitions from the following property in the siebel.properties file:

siebel.conmgr.virtualhosts

The siebel.properties file must reside in the classpath of the Java Virtual Machine.

For information about using virtual hosts in the siebel.properties file, see Transports and Interfaces: Siebel Enterprise Application Integration.
