This chapter describes the procedures that you must perform before an upgrade of your development environment or your production environment. To better understand which phase of the upgrade process you are in and what tasks still remain, refer to Figure 5. Figure 5 illustrates where you are in the upgrade process depending on whether you are performing a development or production environment upgrade.
If a procedure is specific to one environment, a caution appears at the beginning of the procedure; for example:
CAUTION: This procedure only applies to development environment upgrades.
A checklist of preupgrade tasks is provided in Table 6. Perform the procedures for the environment that you are upgrading.
- Development environment upgrades. Conduct preupgrade procedures for development environments. Skip the procedures that only apply to production environments.
- Test environment upgrades. If your deployment has no customizations or configuration changes to Siebel eBusiness Applications, and therefore does not have a development environment, conduct preupgrade and upgrade procedures on a test environment (using a copy of your production database) before you upgrade your production environment. See Upgrading Without a Development Environment.
- Production environment upgrades. Conduct preupgrade procedures for production environments. Skip procedures that only apply to development environments.
