Roadmap for Installing and Configuring Siebel Business Applications in an Upgrade Case (Existing Database)
Use this roadmap to guide you in performing the installation and configuration tasks for deploying the current release of Siebel CRM, where there is an existing Siebel database, such as when you are upgrading to the current release. The current release is Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4 (Siebel Innovation Pack 2013). Figure 3 presents a simplified view of the installation and configuration tasks for server-based modules that apply in an upgrade installation case. You install Database Configuration Utilities with the first installed Siebel Server.

NOTE: In addition to the tasks listed in this topic, it is recommended that, for each applicable Siebel module, you install the latest Siebel Patchset release. Install the patchset after you install Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4 and before you run the Siebel Configuration Wizards. In some cases, installing a particular Siebel Patchset release might be required. For more information, see About Siebel CRM Releases.
This roadmap does not include the database upgrade tasks. Before you upgrade, you must have installed at least one Siebel Server with Database Configuration Utilities and installed Siebel Tools. In addition, you must have updated the Siebel Repository files, as described in Obtaining Updated Siebel Repository Files. For more information about upgrading, see About Installing in Upgrade Environments and see Siebel Database Upgrade Guide. The installation process for Siebel Business Applications in an upgrade installation case requires multiple tasks that you perform in the following general sequence:
- Create the network images for all applicable releases of Siebel CRM:
- For the Siebel Enterprise Server, install the current release, Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4. Install the following Siebel Enterprise Server components:
- Siebel Gateway Name Server
- Siebel Server
- Database Configuration Utilities (install with the first Siebel Server)
See Installing Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension.
- Configure the following Siebel Enterprise Server modules, in the sequence shown:
- Siebel Gateway Name Server
- Siebel Enterprise on the Siebel Gateway Name Server computer
See Configuring Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension and Additional Postinstallation and Configuration Tasks.
- Configure the Siebel Server, and perform the postinstallation tasks.
NOTE: You must install and configure a Siebel Server before you can configure the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE).
See Configuring Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension and Additional Postinstallation and Configuration Tasks.
- For the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE), install the current release, Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4.
See Installing Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension.
- Configure the Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) in the following sequence:
- Configure the logical profile for the SWSE on the Siebel Gateway Name Server computer.
- Apply the SWSE logical profile on the Web server computer where you installed SWSE.
See Configuring Siebel Enterprise Server Components and the Siebel Web Server Extension and Additional Postinstallation and Configuration Tasks.
- (Optional) If you are using Siebel load balancing, then you also generate the load balancing configuration file lbconfig.txt after installing and configuring participating Siebel Servers. Place the file in the SWSE logical profile directory, and reapply the logical profile.
For more information, see Process of Configuring Load Balancing for Siebel Business Applications.
- (Optional) For Siebel Mobile Web Clients or Developer Web Clients, install the base release, Siebel CRM version 8.1.1 or version 8.2.2. Then install the current release as a patch release for the existing installation of the base release.
See Installing Siebel Web Clients and Siebel Tools.
- For Siebel Tools, install the base release, Siebel CRM version 8.1.1 or version 8.2.2. Then install the current release as a patch release for the existing installation of the base release.
