Moving a Siebel Analytics Web Catalog to Another Installation


This procedure explains how to move an existing Web Catalog to another Analytics installation. (For information about migrating a complete Siebel Analytics installation, see the Technical Notes section on SupportWeb.)

To move an existing Web Catalog to another installation

  1. Stop the Analytics Web Server service.
  2. Verify if the service shut down correctly by checking that the latest modified file in the Catalog folder is the Web Catalog file with a WEBCAT extension. If the most recently saved file has an AUTOSAVE or VERSION extension, then the server was not shut down correctly.

NOTE:  If the AUTOSAVE file is newer than the WEBCAT file and you know that the Siebel Analytics Web server has stopped, back up the whole folder before proceeding, and using the latest AUTOSAVE file instead, rename it with a WEBCAT extension.

  1. Copy the original Web Catalog file to the appropriate location on the new installation.
  2. Restart the services.
