Administering Siebel enterprises, their servers and components is a complex endeavour. Oracle's Siebel CRM provides two built-in tools to assist administrators with their daily tasks regarding server monitoring, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
In this chapter, we explored these tools, namely the server management views in the Siebel web client, which provide a graphical user interface (GUI) and the Siebel Server Manager command line tool srvrmgr.
An introduction to the concepts of the building blocks of a Siebel enterprise was given as well.
Using typical server management scenarios like listing server components and their current run state or creating job requests, we explored the various ways to professionally manage Siebel servers, components and tasks within a Siebel enterprise.
In the next chapter, we will cover the mechanisms of user authentication in Siebel CRM.
