Importing the Siebel Repository on Database Server for DB2

---

As a final step, you must import the Siebel Repository. This populates all the repository tables in the Siebel Database Server with the new Siebel eBusiness Applications, version 7 application objects.

NOTE:  Regardless of how many Siebel eBusiness Applications you are using (for example, Siebel Sales, Siebel Service, and Siebel Marketing), you will load the repository tables only once.

To import the repository

Navigate to $SIEBEL_HOME/bin and source environment variables, using the instructions provided in Installing Database Server Components for DB2.
Verify whether the values SIEBEL_ROOT and LANGUAGE are correctly set or are empty, again, according to the previous instructions.
Navigate to $SIEBEL_ROOT /bin and run the following script:

dbsrvr_config.ksh

This launches the Siebel Database Server Configuration Wizard.

NOTE:  You must have read, write, and execute permission to run this script successfully.

The script begins by displaying the current settings for the SIEBEL_ROOT and LANGUAGE variables and prompts you as to whether these settings are correct.

Confirm whether the settings are correct by entering either Y or N.

NOTE:  If either the SIEBEL_ROOT or LANGUAGE value is not set or is incorrect, you must correct them before proceeding.

Specify the path of your Siebel Server root directory, or accept the default by pressing ENTER.
Specify the path of your Siebel Database Server root directory, or accept the default by pressing ENTER.

The script displays the RDBMS Platform screen.

Select the RDBMS Platform:

1- IBM DB2 UDB for UNIX and Windows

2- Oracle Database Enterprise Edition

Type 1 and press ENTER to select IBM DB2 UDB for UNIX and Windows.

The script displays the Siebel Database Operation menu, as follows:

Select the Siebel Database Operation

1- Install Database
2- Upgrade Database
3- Import/Export Repository
4- Migrate Repository
5- Run Database Utilities

Type 3 and press ENTER to select Import/Export Repository.

The script displays the Repository Operations menu:

Select one of the following options:

1- Import Repository
2- Add language to an existing Repository
3- Export Repository

Type 1 and press ENTER to select Import Repository.

The script displays the Import Repository options menu:

Specify your import repository option:

1- Import Siebel Repository
2- Import Custom Repository

Specify the type of Repository you want to import.

To import the Siebel Repository, type 1 and press Enter.

The script displays the list of available Language Packs.

Enter the number that corresponds to the Language Pack you want to install.

NOTE:  The Language Pack you select must match the primary(base) language you selected during installation of the Siebel database schema.

NOTE:  In a Unicode-enabled database environment, you can install any of the available Siebel language packs. In a non-Unicode database environment, you must consider the correlation of the language packs you want to install and the characters supported by your database code page. For example, in a Western European code page database, you can only install Western European language packs such as English, French, Spanish, or German language packs. And in a Japanese code page database, you can only install Japanese or English language packs.

For a list of supported code pages and encoding strategies, see System Requirements and Supported Platforms.

Enter the ODBC data source name; for example, SiebSrvr_siebel.

NOTE:  The Siebel Server installation process automatically creates the data source, using the format SiebSrvr_enterprise_server_name.

Enter the user name for the Siebel administrator for your database; for example, SADMIN.
Enter the password for the specified database administrator account; for example, DB2SADMIN.
Enter the DB2 database tableowner name; for example, siebel.
Enter the database tableowner password; for example, db2.
Enter the name of your repository or accept the default; for example, Siebel Repository.
Enter the name of your repository file name or accept the default; for example, mstrep.dat.

After you have completed your import Repository specifications, the Configuration Wizard displays the list of configured values and prompts you as to whether you want to launch the Siebel Upgrade Wizard (srvrupgwiz).

Indicate whether or not you want to run the Upgrade Wizard:
To confirm your specifications and launch the Upgrade Wizard, enter Y.
To reject the values and exit the Configuration Wizard, enter N.

If you need to change the values you previously entered, rerun the Configuration Wizard by running the dbsrvr_config.ksh. This will allow you to reconfigure with different values.

If a program or system error occurs and you need to rerun the Siebel Upgrade Wizard, you can do so, starting at the point at which the wizard failed, by navigating to $SIEBEL_ROOT/bin and entering the following command:
srvrupgwiz -m master_imprep.ucf

If the upgrade was successful, the Siebel Upgrade Wizard displays a success message when installation is complete.
