Reviewing the Upgrade Log Files

The Release 7.5.3 Siebel Upgrade Wizard generates all log files for a given process in a single directory, $SIEBEL_ROOT/siebsrvr/log/PROCESS (where PROCESS defaults to UPGRADEOPTION_ENVIRONMENT_VERSION).

For example, all log files for a development environment upgrade of the custom database schema from Release 6.0.1 appear in the following log directory: $SIEBEL_ROOT/siebsrvr/log/upgphys_dev_601. You can select an alternate process directory at the Log Output Directory prompt in the Database Server Configuration Utility.

NOTE:  If you are upgrading to a version prior to Release 7.5.3, the log files are located in the $SIEBEL_ROOT/siebsrvr/log directory.

These log files may include errors that are expected and benign. Acceptable errors are documented in the errors.rtf file located in the DBSRVR_ROOT/PLATFORM directory. Before you proceed with the upgrade, you must review the log files carefully for unacceptable errors. Subsequent log files are created when the upgrade wizard encounters a problem and the user attempts a retry.

To review the log files, see Reviewing the Upgrade Log Files.

CAUTION:  Do not proceed with the upgrade until unacceptable errors have been corrected. If you cannot correct the error, contact Siebel Technical Support or Professional Services to report the error in detail.
