Before uninstalling or upgrading any Siebel Analytics software, it is recommended that backups of key configuration files be made, and the files moved to a temporary location. The following sections show the locations of the configuration files under Windows and UNIX platforms. Windows PlatformsThe installer automatically backs up the Windows files shown in Table 14. The backup files are saved to the directory $INSTALLDIR\Install_Backup\<installation_date>. NOTE: The Siebel Analytics Web Catalog stores the application dashboards and report definitions and contains information regarding permissions and accessibility of the dashboards by groups. If you are upgrading a Siebel Analytics Web Catalog from an earlier version, see Siebel Analytics Web Administration Guide before installing Siebel Analytics. UNIX PlatformsThe installer automatically backs up the UNIX files shown in Table 15. The backup files are saved to the directory $INSTALLDIR/Install_Backup/<installation_date>. (For example, SiebelAnalytics/Install_Backup/05.13.2005_16.40.20.) NOTE: The Siebel Analytics Web Catalog stores the application dashboards and report definitions and contains information regarding permissions and accessibility of the dashboards by groups. If you are upgrading a Siebel Analytics Web Catalog from an earlier version, see Siebel Analytics Web Administration Guide before installing Siebel Analytics. |
