Obtaining Updated Siebel Repository Files

Updated Siebel Repository files (SRF files) are available for download from My Oracle Support, using part number 22145965. These updated SRF files correspond to repository updates in the Siebel database for Siebel Innovation Pack 2015, Patchset 5 or later (version 15.5 or later). The SRF files are available for all of the supported Siebel languages. After you obtain the updated SRF files, copy them to applicable Siebel Server and Siebel Web Client installations, where appropriate.

After you install Siebel Innovation Pack 2015, Siebel Patchset 5 or later, you require the updated SRF files in the following cases:

• You require the updated SRF files to run Siebel Business Applications after you install a new Siebel database for Siebel CRM version 15.5 or later, as described in Installing the Siebel Database on the RDBMS.
• You also require the updated SRF files for either of the following tasks described in Siebel Database Upgrade Guide. (It is not necessary to compile the New Siebel Repository SRF.)
  • If you run incremental repository merge for an existing Siebel database.
  • If you perform a full database upgrade for an existing Siebel database.

NOTE:  Siebel Innovation Pack 2015, Patchset 5 or later includes some optional features that involve changes to the Siebel Repository. These features are already included if you install a new Siebel database after installing Siebel Innovation Pack 2015, Patchset 5 or later. For an existing installation of Siebel Innovation Pack 2015, if you want to use these features, you must run Incremental Repository Merge after installing the patchset release. (If you have already run Incremental Repository Merge for Patchset 5 or later, then you do not need to run it again for subsequent patchset releases.) For more information about Incremental Repository Merge and database upgrades, see Siebel Database Upgrade Guide.

For information about installing Siebel Patchset 5 or later, see Siebel Patchset Installation Guide for Siebel CRM, 1614310.1 (Article ID) on My Oracle Support.
