Pre-Installation Tasks for Siebel DB Server for Oracle

---

Before installing the Siebel Database Server, you must complete the following tasks:

Obtain the services of a qualified database administrator to assist you during your installation.
Make sure that Oracle is properly configured, as documented in Creating the Oracle Database. Complete the appropriate RDBMS-specific information in a photocopy you make of Deployment Planning Worksheets.
The Oracle Net8 (or Net9, as appropriate to your database) connect string. You will need this to connect to your Oracle database.
The tableowner account user name and password. Oracle requires that you assign a user name and password to any database tables you create. Prior to installing the Siebel Database Server, you will edit the grantusr.sql script and enter this information. Siebel is the default Tableowner Account user name and password for Siebel applications.
The Siebel data tablespace. The name of the tablespace on the Oracle server where the Siebel data tables are stored.
The Siebel index tablespace. The name of the tablespace on the Oracle server where the Siebel indexes are stored.
Install Oracle database client software onto the machine you intend to use as your Siebel Database Server. Make sure that you have set the ORACLE_HOME variable appropriately before installing the Siebel application.
Complete all the steps in the appropriate sections of Installing the Siebel Gateway and Installing the Siebel Server to install at least one Siebel Server.
If this Enterprise will be multilingual, make sure that you install all the languages that you want the Siebel Database to support onto the associated Siebel Server.
