1. Referred to as "character set" for MS SQL and Oracle servers, "code set" for IBM UDB LUW, and "CCSID" for IBM UDB on OS/390 and System z series.

2. If you are installing an IBM UDB Unicode database, use UTF-8 as the codeset and retain the hyphen. You must enter UTF-8 although the codeset support is for UCS-2. This is because when you specify UTF-8 for the VARCHAR field, the VARGRAPHIC field is set to UCS-2 automatically. Therefore, UCS-2 is not specified in this parameter.

3. To download this FixPak, go to http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/db2/udb/support/downloadv8_linuxx8624kernel.html#r12.

4. Oracle 11g R2 is supported as of the Siebel 8.0.0.9 Fix Pack.

5. IBM DB2 for LUW v9.7 is supported as of the Siebel 8.0.0.9 Fix Pack.

Note that dictionary sort orders (collation sequences) are not supported for use in the following circumstances:

  • During an upgrade from one Siebel version to another. All databases being upgraded must use a binary sort order (called Identity in UDB).
  • When using Siebel Tools. Development databases where Siebel Tools is being used must use a binary sort order (called Identity in UDB).
