Performing a Custom Installation Under UNIX


Perform the following procedure if you are installing Siebel Business Applications on the UNIX operating system.

To perform a custom installation under UNIX

  1. Launch the Database Server Configuration utility and follow the steps described in Performing a Standard Installation Under UNIX until the Select Installation Type screen appears (Step 16).
  2. Select option 2 - Customized Install.
  3. In the Storage Control File screen, enter the name of the customized storage control file that you created and saved earlier, including the full path to its location. This file is used to configure storage on DB2.
  4. Specify the mechanism you want to use for installation:
    • 1 - Generate DDL Into Files.

      Generates the DDL required to create the Siebel Schema. You must later use Siebel-provided scripts, your own FTP, or a similar file transfer program to transport the DDL (schema.sql and ddlview.sql) to the DB2 host where the DBA executes it, using customary methods, for example, SPUFI or DSNTEP2. Proceed to Step 5.

    • 2 - Run DDL automatically.

      Select this option to apply the DDL and DML required to create the Siebel Schema directly against the database. The Siebel application uses ODBC to apply the required DDL to the DB2 host. Proceed to Step 7.

  5. On the DDL Commit Frequency screen, choose the number of DDL statements to be processed before a COMMIT statement is issued.
  6. Enter the path to the output directory for the DDL files that you will transfer to your z/OS machine, or accept the default directory, dbsrvr/db2390/dboutput/install.
  7. Indicate the directory where you want the log files to be generated. Either accept the default value, install_mf, or enter a new directory name.
  8. Review the configuration values you entered for accuracy. If the values are correct, launch the Siebel Upgrade wizard (srvrupgwiz) by entering 1 (Yes).
    • This step completes the installation option to Run DDL Automatically.
    • If you chose the Generate DDL Into Files installation option in Step 4, you must now apply the Siebel Schema on the DB2 host, validate the schema, install user-defined functions, and populate the Siebel Schema with seed data.

      For information on performing these tasks, see the section, To Complete the Siebel Schema Installation Using Generated DDL, in Performing a Standard Installation Under UNIX.

When you have successfully completed the custom installation, you are ready to import the Siebel Repository. See Importing the Siebel Repository for further information.
