Acceptable Errors and the errors.rtf File


The Siebel Database Server installation and configuration log files might include errors that are expected and benign. Compare any error messages found in the log files to the sample error messages in the errors.rtf file. The errors.rtf file is located in the DBSRVR_ROOT\db2390 directory.

  • If a log file is not listed in the errors.rtf file, then there are no acceptable error messages for that log file.
  • If the log files contain errors listed in the errors.rtf file, no further action is required.

NOTE:  Only one of each type of error occurring in a particular log file appears in the errors.rtf file.

If you find errors not listed in the errors.rtf file, correct the condition that caused the errors, and rerun the Upgrade Wizard. If you cannot determine the cause of the errors on your own, contact Siebel Technical Support.

When reviewing error messages, be aware that error numbers can change after the installation of a new driver version. Compare the error descriptions to find out which are acceptable errors for the z/OS platform.

CAUTION:  Although you are unlikely to encounter errors other than those listed in the errors.rtf file, it is critical that you review the error messages. Certain errors, such as a failure to create indexes, can result in performance problems or anomalous behavior in Siebel Business Applications.
