Implementing Siebel eBusiness Applications on DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS > Introduction >
How This Guide Is Organized
This guide is a sequel and companion to Siebel Server Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows or Siebel Server Installation Guide for UNIX, as appropriate to the platform on which your Siebel Enterprise Server runs. You cannot install Siebel eBusiness Applications without first following the installation instructions in that guide, because installing the Siebel Enterprise Server is a prerequisite to installing your Siebel Database.
This guide covers implementations of Siebel eBusiness Applications on the DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS platforms, including:
- Security concepts, roles, and permissions required to set up a connection to DB2 and to install Siebel eBusiness Applications on DB2
- Creation and optimization of the DB2 subsystem in preparation for installing and configuring the Siebel Schema
- Descriptions of key concepts and utilities used to configure database layout for installation, configuration, and customization
- Guidelines for partitioning large tables
- Siebel Schema installation and configuration (covered in a sequence of three chapters)
- Issues regarding customization of Siebel eBusiness Applications specific to DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS, including migration from a development to a test environment or to a production environment
- Special platform-specific considerations in using Siebel Enterprise Integration Management (EIM) to migrate large amounts of legacy data
A worksheet is provided for planning your deployment.
NOTE: Your Siebel implementation might not have all the features described in this guide, depending on which software licenses you have purchased.
Unless otherwise indicated, any reference in this guide to DB2 means IBM DB2 Universal Database for the OS/390 and z/OS platforms. DB2 is also referred to as DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS. Unless otherwise indicated, statements that apply to the OS/390 platform also apply to z/OS.
Any IBM DB2 Universal Database reference that applies specifically to the Microsoft Windows or UNIX platforms is explicitly called out.
