Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize before deployment
Before you deploy, create and populate the Unica Campaign , Unica Optimize, and Unica Deliver system tables and register Unica Campaign, Unica Optimize, and Unica Deliver manually.
Setting data source variables in the Unica Campaign startup script (UNIX only)
Data source variables are automatically set by the installer during installation of Unica Campaign. You can change these settings in the Campaign/bin/setenv.sh file. You must restart the server every time you modify the setenv.sh file.

  - Planning the Unica Campaign Installation
    When you plan your Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize installation, you must ensure that you have set up your system correctly, and that you have configured your environment to deal with any failures.
  - Preparing data sources for Unica Campaign
    The Unica Campaign runtime environment uses data sources to store user and interaction data.
  - Installing Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize
    You must run the Unica installer to start the installation of Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize. The Unica installer starts the product installer during the installation process. Make sure that the Unica installer and the product installer are saved at the same location.
  - Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize before deployment
    Before you deploy, create and populate the Unica Campaign , Unica Optimize, and Unica Deliver system tables and register Unica Campaign, Unica Optimize, and Unica Deliver manually.
    - Creating and populating the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize system tables manually
      By default, the Unica Campaign installer automatically creates and populates system tables. However, if the system tables are not created and populated automatically during the installation, you must populate the system tables manually. Use your database client to run the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize SQL scripts against the appropriate database to create and populate the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize system tables.
    - Registering Unica Campaign manually
      During the installation process. if the Unica Campaign installer cannot access the Unica Platform system tables, you must run the configTool utility to register Unica Campaign manually.
    - Setting data source variables in the Unica Campaign startup script (UNIX only)
      Data source variables are automatically set by the installer during installation of Unica Campaign. You can change these settings in the Campaign/bin/setenv.sh file. You must restart the server every time you modify the setenv.sh file.
      - Database and library environment variables (UNIX)
        Set database and library environment variables that are required for your databases (customer tables and system tables, if you chose Manual Database Setup during installation) and operating system. You can set the database and library variables in the setenv.sh file.
  - Deploying the Unica Campaign web application
    You can deploy the Unica Campaign web application by using an EAR file or you can deploy the individual WAR files.
  - Configuring Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize after deployment
    After you deploy Unica Campaign, you must verify that the Unica Campaign listener is running, set up the Unica Campaign system user, set Unica Campaign configuration properties, and verify the Unica Campaign installation.
  - Configuring multiple partitions for Unica Campaign
    In the Unica family of products, partitions provide a way to secure the data that is associated with different groups of users. When you configure Unica Campaign or a related Unica application to operate with multiple partitions, users can see each partition as a separate instance of the application. There is no indication that other partitions exist on the same computer.
  - Configuring multiple partitions for Unica Optimize
    In the Unica family of products, partitions provide a way to secure the data that is associated with different groups of users. When you configure Unica Campaign or a related Unica application to operate with multiple partitions, users can see each partition as a separate instance of the application. There is no indication that other partitions exist on the same computer.
  - Configuring multiple partitions in Deliver
    Configure multiple partitions in Unica Deliver to isolate and secure data for different groups of Unica Deliver users. As each partition has its own set of configuration properties, you can customize Unica Deliver for each group of users.
  - Unica Platform utilities
    This section provides an overview of the Unica Platform utilities, including some details that apply to all the utilities and which are not included in the individual utility descriptions.
  - Uninstalling Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize
    Run the Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize uninstaller to uninstall Unica Campaign and Unica Optimize. When you run the uninstaller, the files that were created during the installation process are removed. For example, files such as configuration files, installer registry information, and user data are removed from the computer.
  - Unica Campaign web application clustering
    You can configure the Unica Campaign web application (J2EE application) in a cluster by completing additional tasks during the Unica Campaign installation.
  - Installing a clustered listener environment
    Follow these instructions if you want to install a clustered listener configuration. A listener cluster is a set of two or more listeners that act as a unit to provide load balancing and high availability. Unica Campaign listener clusters are Active-Active; meaning each node serves requests using the load-balanced approach. Each Unica Campaign listener provides an interface between front-end clients (such as the Unica Campaign web application) and back-end analytical server processes.

Setting data source variables in the Unica Campaign startup script (UNIX only)

Data source variables are automatically set by the installer during installation of Unica Campaign. You can change these settings in the Campaign/bin/setenv.sh file. You must restart the server every time you modify the setenv.sh file.

About this task

During Unica Campaign installation, the Installer collects database information from you and uses that information to automatically configure the database and environment variables that are required to create and use the Unica Campaign system tables. Those settings are stored in the setenv.sh file in the bin directory under your Unica Campaign server installation.

For access to data sources (such as Unica Campaign customer tables) that do not use the same type of database as the system tables, you must manually configure the setenv.sh file to add the database and library environment variables that are described in Database and library environment variables.

Note that if you modify this file when the Unica Campaign server is already running, you must restart the server before changes to the setenv file are recognized. See Starting the Unica Campaign server for more details.

See Distributed Marketing database information worksheet for the required information to add to the setenv file.
