About Siebel ADM Configurations for New Data Types

Siebel Application Deployment Manager (ADM) can be extended to support additional database and file data types for deployment. Creating a new file data type for deployment requires a new entry in the ADM registry. Creating a new database data type for deployment requires a new entry in the ADM registry, as well as a new integration object and a new content object.

NOTE:  Adding repository data types is unnecessary, because all repository objects are automatically covered.

The following topics describe ADM system administration or configuration tasks that are sometimes necessary when preparing for ADM deployments of new data types:

• Configuring the ADM Registry
• Restoring the ADM Registry
• Creating Integration Objects for ADM
• Creating Content Objects for ADM
• Configuring Integration Objects for ADM Deployment

For information on specific data type attributes used for creating new data types, see Siebel ADM Support for Additional Data Types. For other deployment and activation details for ADM data types, see Siebel ADM Supported Data Types.
