Performing a UTC Delta Upgrade


You may want to perform a UTC Delta upgrade if you have upgraded to Siebel eBusiness Applications, Release 7.0.x, performed the UTC upgrade, and then upgraded to Siebel eBusiness Applications, Release 7.5. Completing this will upgrade the data in columns that changed from non-UTC to UTC in the Siebel Repository.

To perform the UTC Delta Upgrade

  1. Open $Dbsrvr\[your database platform]\master_utc.ucf.
  2. Change the File Name to point to driver_utc.delta.ucf.

    NOTE:  You should replace driver_utc.ucf with driver_utc.delta.ucf.

  3. Run UTC Configuration (ssincfgw or dbsrvr_config.ksh for UNIX) to run the UTC Upgrade process.

Running the UTC Upgrade

After adding any necessary UTC columns and creating any necessary new input files, you are ready to run the UTC Upgrade program to convert your data.

To run the UTC Upgrade on a UNIX operating system (Solaris or AIX)

  1. Navigate to the SIEBEL_ROOT/Bin directory and run dbsrvr_config.ksh.
  2. At the Siebel Database Operation screen, select Option 5, Run Database Utilities.
  3. At the "Would you like to run srvrupgwiz?" prompt, enter Y to start the UTC Upgrade process.

To run the UTC Upgrade on a Windows operating system

  1. Navigate to the SIEBEL_ROOT/Bin directory and run ssincfgw.
  2. At the Siebel Database Operation screen, select Option 5, Run Database Utilities.
  3. On the following screen, select option 2, Universal Time Code Conversion and continue with the configuration until done.
  4. At the "Would you like to run siebupg?" prompt, click OK to start the UTC Upgrade process.

NOTE:  The time to run the UTC Upgrade process depends on the number of records in your tables.
