Exporting the New Custom Repository Export File

Upgrades: All upgrades.

Environments: Development environment only.

The Database Server Configuration Wizard exports the new customized repository to a file called custrep.dat, located in the DBSRVR_PLTFRM_ROOT directory on the Siebel Server from which you ran the upgrade. Locate this file and make a backup copy of it. You will need it for the upgrade of the production database.

If you make any changes to your custom repository after running the development upgrade Database Server Configuration Wizard, including reapplying custom extensions or modifying EIM mappings in the two previous steps, you must export a new copy of the repository before performing the production upgrade. Use the script DBSRVR_PLTFRM_ROOT/master_exprep.ucf to export your current repository to the file that you designated as the output file in the Database Server Configuration Wizard.

The master_exprep.ucf calls the repimexp utility, which connects to two separate repositories—the repository whose structure is to be extracted, and the repository whose content is to be extracted. Apart from unusual circumstances, you will always extract both the structure and content of the same repository.

For information on exporting repositories, see the Using Siebel Tools.

NOTE:  Before you export the repository, make sure that all Siebel Tools projects are unlocked to promote a stable environment.
