About the Siebel Upgrade Wizard

Upgrades: All upgrades.

Environments: All environments.

The Siebel Upgrade Wizard makes changes to the Siebel Database using the SQL files and the upgrade configuration file (UCF) generated by the Database Server Configuration utility. After the Siebel Upgrade Wizard starts, it executes this process:

• Reads the UCF
• Calls a driver
• Passes the information in the UCF to the driver, which then passes UCF file information to:
  • ddlimp, which executes ddl-type SQL commands
  • dataimp, which executes data-related SQL commands

The Siebel Upgrade Wizard also does the following:

• Upgrades Siebel seed data
• Loads the following repositories for development environment upgrades:
  • Prior Standard Repository
  • New Standard Repository
  • New Customer Repository

If ddlimp or dataimp encounter errors, they exit. When the errors have been corrected, you can launch the Siebel Upgrade Wizard, and the upgrade resumes from where it stopped.
