Reviewing the Log Files for Database Server Installation for DB2

The Siebel Database Server component installation creates a number of log files, such as srvrupgwiz.log and srvrupgwiz1.log (which increments to additional logs) within the $SIEBEL_ROOT/log subdirectory, which you must review for any errors.

When you install seed data, tables, and indexes for DB2 UDB, it generates the following log files.

ddl_ctl.log
dataimp_prim.log
dataimp_prim_lang.log
siebproc.log
seeddb2.log
seedver.log
seedssa.log
ddlview.log
loadstats.log
grantstat.log
updatestats.log
db2ddl.log
set_unicode.log
set_utc_on.log

When you install your primary(base) language Pack, it creates a log file with the name dataimp_prim_lang.log.

Acceptable Errors for Database Server Installation for DB2

The log files may include errors that are expected and benign. Compare any error messages found in the log files to the sample error messages in the errors.txt file, which is located in the installation subdirectory for your database platform; for example, db2udb. (If a log file is not listed in the errors.txt file, then there are no acceptable error messages for that log file.) No further action is required if the log files contain errors listed in the errors.txt file.

NOTE:  Only one of each type of error occurring in a particular log file appears in the errors.txt file.

If you find errors not listed in the errors.txt file, correct the condition that caused the errors, and rerun the Upgrade Wizard. The wizard will restart from the point where it left off.

Do not review error numbers alone, since these may have changed following installation of a new driver version. Instead, compare the actual error descriptions to find out which are acceptable errors for this platform.

CAUTION:  Although other errors are rarely encountered, this review is critical. Certain errors, such as a failure to create indexes, may result in performance problems or anomalous behavior in Siebel eBusiness Applications.
