- Use Siebel Anywhere only with software that is related to the use of Siebel Business Applications.
- Do not use Siebel Anywhere for major Siebel release upgrades, such as upgrading a database schema from Siebel 6 to Siebel 7.
- Do not use Siebel Anywhere to upgrade from Siebel 7.0.x to Siebel 7.5.x, Siebel 7.7.x, or Siebel 7.8.x.
