Configuring the Application Directory Setting

Application Directory is an application-level parameter that is defined in the Administration - Siebel Mobile, Application Administration, Settings view. The default value for this parameter in the standard product is hhsync\app_name, where app_name is the name of the application, such as salesm or servicem, and so on. You can set this parameter using the following procedure. This task is a step in Roadmap for Setting Up Siebel Mobile Disconnected Applications.

To configure the Application Directory setting

1. Log in to the Siebel Server using a user ID with a Siebel administrator responsibility.

2. Navigate to the Administration - Siebel Mobile screen, then the Application Administration view.

3. Select the appropriate application (for example, Siebel ePharma Mobile) from the upper applet.

4. Click the Settings tab, and set the value of the Application Directory parameter to be the shared network location using a UNC format, for example, as follows:

   \\shareddsk\hhsync\phm 
   

5. Save the change.

6. Restart the Siebel Application Object Manager server component for the Siebel Mobile disconnected application.

Note: The location for the Application Directory must be a networked, high performance, highly available drive. SAN (Storage Area Network) or NAS (Network Access Server) with a high RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) rating is a good option for this purpose.
