introduction

For midsize companies, extending the depth and breadth of customer relationships is

key to staying competitive. Implementing application technologies that can help this

effort requires weighing needed functionality, capacity, reliability, and availability

characteristics against total cost of ownership. Sun Systems for Siebel CRM

Professional Edition is the first complete technology solution that leverages Oracle

Virtual Machine Templates for Siebel CRM 8.1.1 and combines them with Sun’s

high-performance, energy-efficient systems. The result is a solution that can help

lower cost, minimize risk, and simplify and speed deployment. With this solution,

organizations can get Siebel CRM up fast—in less than three hours.

Oracle’s Siebel CRM can help companies thrive in today’s customer-driven

marketplace by empowering employees with increased information visibility,

increasing the lifetime value of customers, and accelerating the ability to maximize

revenues while protecting technology investments. Many companies use distributed

information systems consisting of many small physical servers that are often idle

to ensure sufficient capacity and redundancy is available during periods of high

demand. Virtualization—a software technology that supports multiple virtual

servers transparently in a single hardware server—is an exciting tool for balancing

the work that must be done against the cost of operations. The cornerstone for

the Sun Systems for Siebel CRM Professional Edition solution is the Sun Fire™ X4270

server, a system designed specifically for virtualization that outperforms comparable

systems from other vendors on key virtualization benchmarks.1

This document outlines the steps for installing and configuring the Sun Systems

for Siebel CRM Professional Edition solution. Topics covered include setup and

implementation of the Sun Fire X4270 server, Oracle VM Server 2.1.2, and Siebel

CRM 8.1.1 software. Preparation steps are designed to help ensure intuitive and easy

setup and operation of the virtualized Siebel environment on Sun Fire servers.


Chapter 2

solution Architecture

Several hardware and software components comprise the base configuration for the

Sun Systems for Siebel CRM Professional Edition solution (Figure 2-1). This document

describes a base configuration with an optional Sun™ Storage J4200 array for

additional storage capacity.

• SunFireX4270server

Designed to support consolidation and virtualization efforts, Sun Fire X4270

servers are powered by up to two Intel® Xeon® 5500 Series processors and deliver

performance, expandability, energy efficiency, and virtualization capabilities in a

compact 2U form factor. Compute, memory, storage, and I/O subsystem density

and expandability, combined with redundant and hot-swappable components and

built-in system management tools, make Sun Fire X4270 servers ideally suited to

database and Web infrastructure deployments.

• SunStorageJ4200array(optional)

Offering breakthrough pricing, reliable data integrity and security, and ease of

management, the Sun Storage J4200 array can help companies derive greater

value from business-critical data. Supporting up to 48 SATA or SAS hard disk drives,

fully hot-swappable and redundant I/O modules, power supplies, and cooling

modules, and up to 36 Gb/sec of bandwidth, Sun Storage J4200 arrays deliver cost-

effective, highly reliable storage in a compact 2U footprint.

• Oraclesoftware

The Sun Systems for Siebel CRM Professional Edition solution includes the

Oracle VM Template for Siebel CRM, which consists of two templates. The Oracle

Database VM template includes the Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 (32-bit) and Oracle

Database 11.1.0.6 software. The Siebel Applications VM template includes Oracle

Enterprise Linux 5.3 (32-bit), Oracle Database Client 11.1.0.6, Oracle HTTP Server

10.1.3, and Siebel CRM SIA 8.1.1 software. Administrators can choose to deploy

both templates on a single physical server or on two or more separate physical

servers.

The installation and configuration steps described in this document deploy both

templates on a single physical Sun Fire X4270 server.

installation and configuration

This chapter describes the steps needed to setup a basic Sun Systems for Siebel CRM

Professional Edition solution with an optional Sun Storage J4200 array, including:

• Preparing the hardware

• Installing and configuring Oracle VM server 2.1.2 software

• Installing and configuring Siebel Business Application software

• Installing Raid Manager on Oracle VM Server 2.1.2 software

Prepare the HardwareThe following steps prepare the server and array hardware for installation.

1. Insert the Sun Fire X4270 server in the rack using corresponding slide rails.

2. Plug the power cords into the AC power connectors on the Sun Fire X4270 server

power supplies. While the Service Processor boots immediately and the power

supply fans start spinning (standby power mode), the server should remain off.

If the server turns on, turn it off using the power button at the bottom left on

the server front panel.

3. Insert the Sun Storage J4200 array into the rack using the corresponding slide

rails.

4. Connect the SAS cable between the external SAS HBA in the server and the Sun

Storage J4200 array.

5. Plug the power cords into the AC power connectors on the Sun Storage J4200

array power supplies. The array turns on immediately. Note that the Sun Storage

J4200 array does not have an on/off switch.

upgrade the server firmwareThe following steps explain how to update the server firmware. It is strongly

recommended that administrators update the server firmware to the latest available

release before performing a system deployment.

1. Download and use the server-specific Tools&DriversCD to upgrade the BIOS and

Service Processor firmware. The most recent Tools&DriversCD for the Sun Fire

X4270 server can be found at sun.com/servers/x64/x4270/downloads.jsp

2. Load the BIOS default settings. Turn the server on and press the F2 key when

the POST screen appears to lead the BIOS setup utility. The POST screen can take

over a minute to appear, depending on the amount of memory in the system.

3. Load the BIOS default settings by pressing the F9 key.

4. Press the F10 key to save the BIOS settings, exit, and reboot the server.

configure the service Processor and sun ilomThe Sun Fire X4270 server can be setup and configured using a keyboard, mouse and

video monitor directly attached to the server, or via a remote keyboard, mouse, and

video on the Service Processor of the Sun Fire X4270 server. This document assumes

the use of remote facilities through the Sun Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM).

A complete implementation of ILOM is standard with the Sun Fire X4270 server at

no additional cost. The Service Processor must be configured with network settings

before the remote facilities can be used.

The IP address of the Service Processor can be configured via a serial connection

using the serial management port on the back of the system, or through the BIOS

setup menu. See the SunIntegratedLightsOutManager(ILOM)3.0GettingStarted

Guide at docs.sun.com/source/820-5523-10.

Other requirements exist for the client machine running the redirection console.

These requirements are documented in the SunIntegratedLightsOutManager

(ILOM)3.0WebInterfaceProceduresGuide located at docs.sun.com/app/docs/
