Analytics License: All licenses.

Operating Systems: All.

Databases: All databases.

This topic is part of the Roadmap for Configuring Siebel Analytics Platform.

If you are using other database types than the default types shipped with Siebel Analytics, follow these steps to change the database type.

To change the database type

1. On a Windows computer, open the Server Administration Tool in offline mode.

   NOTE:  By default, the user name for the repository is Administrator, and the password for the repository is SADMIN. However, your administrator may have changed the default password.
   For information on how to use the Server Administration Tool, see Siebel Analytics Server Administration Guide.

2. In the Physical layer, double-click a database connection to open the Properties window.
3. Use the Data Source Definition drop-down list to choose the database type.

   After making the database type change, click OK.

CAUTION:  Be sure to change the default password before migrating to production.
