Process of Creating a Siebel ADM Package

The process of creating a Siebel Application Deployment Manager (ADM) package is the first phase in migrating application customizations to a new environment using the ADM framework.

For more information on the overall migration process, see Overview of the Siebel ADM Deployment Process. For more information on deploying an ADM package, see Deploying a Siebel ADM Package.

To create an ADM package, perform the following tasks:

1. Reviewing the Siebel ADM Data Type Requirements

   This task helps you determine how to package the application customizations.

2. Consolidating Siebel ADM Data Types into Deployment Units

   This task consolidates the application customizations in a format that can be packaged.

3. Creating the Siebel ADM Package Directory Structure

   This task creates the directory structure used by the ADM framework.

4. Consolidating Siebel ADM Deployment Units into the Deployment Package Directory

   This task consolidates the ADM deployment units into the ADM package directory structure.

5. Generating the Siebel ADM Package

   This task generates the necessary ADM package descriptor files. For information about ADM package descriptor files, see About the ADM Package Descriptor File.

6. Validating the Siebel ADM Package

   This task validates the ADM package contents in preparation for deployment.
