Regenerating the Siebel Postmerge Utilities Log


Upgrades from: Siebel 6.x.

Environments: Development environment only.

This topic is part of an upgrade process. See How to Perform a Siebel Database Upgrade.

When upgrading from Siebel 6.x to Siebel 7.7.x, you perform the repository merge and then the Web Client migration. This invalidates part of the postmerge utilities log created after the repository merge. You must regenerate the postmerge utilities log.

After the repository merge, the postmerge utilities start automatically. They help resolve common repository merge problems related to configuration and layout.

These utilities write to the postmerge utilities log:

SIEBEL_TOOLS_INSTALL_DIR\reppatch\log\repreports.log

Prerequisite: You must have run the repository merge and the Web Client Migration Wizard.

To regenerate the postmerge utilities log

  1. In the Siebel Tools installation that you used to perform the repository merge, click Tools in the menu bar.
  2. In the Upgrade submenu, click Upgrade Application.
  3. In the Merge Repositories dialog box, set up the upgrade in exactly the same way as the actual upgrade, including the advanced settings.
  4. Click Reports.
  5. When the process completes, review the log.
