Implementing Siebel Business Applications on DB2 UDB for z/OS > Customizing a Development Environment >

About Customizing Your Development Environment


Customization of Siebel Business Applications within your development environment can involve:

  • Converting nonpartitioned tables to partitioned tables
  • Changing views, business objects, applets, and tables
  • Adding new columns to existing tables and adding new tables
  • Modifying workflow policies and workflow processes

These tasks are documented in the Using Siebel Tools guide and the Siebel Business Process Designer Administration Guide. However, several customization procedures and issues are specific to DB2 for z/OS; these are described in this chapter.

It is assumed that you perform your development on either of the following:

  • DB2 on a Windows, AIX, or Solaris machine
  • DB2 for z/OS on a partition of your z/OS machine reserved for development

In many cases, changes to user-acceptance and production (server) databases are made by a database administrator working within a change-management system. Therefore, this guide includes procedures for generating Data Definition Language (DDL) files that are later applied to databases.
