What are siebns.dat, srvrdefs.dat, omdefs.dat, srvrdefs.run, omdefs.run files

Answer for this question is simple to the users who are siebel administrators. we know that these file are used for the server configuration purpose. I will explain in detail the purpose of these files.

srvrdefs.dat, srvrdefs_sia.dat -- These file contains default configuration parameters of siebel enterprise.srvrdefs_sia.dat is used for SIA applications. These file is copied during siebel server installation. These files contains the definitions and attributes(parameter values, event logging levels, etc.) for enterprises,server,component groups.

srvrdefs.run, srvrdefs_sia.run -- These files are created during siebel server configuration wizard.The information from these files will be used to create siebns.dat file during siebel server start up.

omdefs.dat, omdefs_sia.dat -- These files contains the definitions and attributes for the AOM. These files are specific to language and are copied during installation.

omdefs.run, omdefs_sia.run -- These files are created during siebel server configuration wizard.
siebns.dat -- This file is created during the start up of the siebel server, which reads the siebel server parameters and components informations from this file and enables the required component groups mentioned in this file.

As we know that it is required to restart if we change the component parameter. It is because this change is not available in siebns.dat file. Once we restart siebel server, It will recreate siebns.dat file with updated configutations from srvrdefs.run, omdefs.run files.
