Running the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard Under UNIX


This task is a step in Process of Performing an Incremental Upgrade of the Siebel Database from Siebel CRM Version 8.1.1.x and 8.2.2.x (SIA Repository). Use this task to run the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard under UNIX.

Environments: Development, production test, and production.

Platforms: UNIX only.

Run the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard to upgrade the Siebel database. The Wizard collects information, populates a master configuration file, and calls the SQL generator to create SQL commands. You then run the Siebel Upgrade Wizard to upgrade the Siebel database.

You must meet the following requirements:

  • Before running the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard, you must install the language packs of the new release of Siebel CRM for each language that you deploy.
  • Collect the information that the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard requires. For more information, see Preparing to Run the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard.

To run the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard under UNIX

  1. Verify that all servers are stopped:
    1. Stop all Siebel Servers.
    2. Stop the Siebel Gateway Name Server.
  2. Make $SIEBEL_ROOT the current directory.
  3. Source the environment variables from the siebsrvr root directory: install location/siebsrvr

    Korn shell: siebenv.sh

    C shell: source siebenv.csh

  4. Review the values of the following environment variables, and confirm that the settings are correct:
    • SIEBEL_ROOT. This path must end in siebsrvr, for example, /usr/siebel/siebsrvr.
    • LANGUAGE. This is the language in which the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard runs. The value of this variable is a language identifier string. For example, enu is the identifier string for American English.

      If either $SIEBEL_ROOT or $LANGUAGE is not set or is incorrect, then you must correct it before proceeding.

  5. Start the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard:

    install_path/config/config.sh -mode dbsrvr

  6. Enter the information requested in each screen, and click Next.

    After you have entered all the requested information, the wizard displays a screen that lists the values you entered.

  7. If you want to make changes, then click Back.

    The Siebel Database Configuration Wizard exits and prompts you to start the Siebel Upgrade Wizard (srvrupgwiz).
