Modifying the Database

SSSE requires certain database characteristics that were not included in earlier versions of Siebel 7.7 software. The following procedure describes how to modify your Siebel database to make it compatible with SSSE.

To modify your Siebel database for use with SSSE

1. Using the documentation provided by your database manufacturer, set the database server time zone to GMT Greenwich / Monrovia.

   SSSE relies on Server Request Processor and Server Request Broker. For these server components to work correctly, the server must use GMT.

2. Drop the index S_SD_SV_PROFILE_F1.

   If this index is not dropped, later parts of the configuration process will fail.

   If this index is dropped, as described here, it is recreated automatically as part of later configuration operations.
