Which Siebel Business Analytics Platform Components to Upgrade

If you decide to upgrade, then you must upgrade all Siebel Business Analytics Platform components. For example, you cannot open a newer version of the repository on an older version of the Server Administration Tool; that is, a repository saved under Oracle BI 10.1.3.2 cannot be opened on Siebel Business Analytics 7.8.x.

The Oracle Business Intelligence Administrator must ensure that the versions of major Oracle Business Intelligence components that are installed on the same machine or that form part of the Oracle BI deployment are from the same release. For example, if only the Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services is upgraded on a system, but the 7.8 release of Siebel Analytics Server remains installed, then the two servers will not work together properly.

For information about checking the version number of Oracle BI components after you have completed the upgrade process, see Verifying the Version Number of Upgraded Components.
