Saving Component Job Definitions in an Upgrade Scenario

This topic is part of Preparing to Run Siebel Server Components After Installing.

In an upgrade scenario, after you install and configure Siebel Servers and after you upgrade the Siebel Database, the S_SRM_ACTION and S_SRM_ACT_PARAM tables are truncated, with the result that component job definitions are deleted. To help you re-create these definitions, it is recommended that you save component job definitions before you upgrade.

For example, you can export data from the S_SRM_ACTION table using Siebel EIM, then import this data into the same table after upgrading the database and synchronizing batch components. For more information about using Siebel EIM, see Siebel Enterprise Integration Manager Administration Guide.
