Installing Siebel Enterprise Server as a Migration Installation
Use the following procedure to install Siebel Enterprise Server as a migration installation for Siebel CRM version 16.0. Migration installation is a type of patch installation. NOTE: Use this procedure only when an earlier version of Siebel Enterprise Server is already installed (Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.x, version 8.2.2.x, or version 15.x). Otherwise, you must follow the steps in Installing Siebel Enterprise Server as a New Installation instead.
During a migration installation, the original Siebel Enterprise Server installation directory is renamed from OriginalName to OriginalName _pre16.0 . For example, if the original installation directory name was ses , then this directory is renamed to ses_pre16.0 . The new Siebel Enterprise Server installation directory is named OriginalName , such as ses . Retain the original installation directory, in case you choose to perform a rollback uninstallation later. For more information, see Rolling Back the Siebel Enterprise Server. NOTE: Before performing a migration installation, review the information in About Installing Siebel Business Applications.
This topic is part of Installing Siebel Enterprise Server. This task is a step in Roadmap for Installing Siebel Business Applications in a Migration Installation Case (Existing Installation). To install Siebel Enterprise Server as a migration installation
- Review About Installing Siebel Business Applications.
- Perform any premigration tasks that might be necessary, as noted in Additional Tasks for Migration Installations.
CAUTION: For example, you must remove the configuration for the SWSE before you install the current release as a migration installation. If you are using data encryption, then you must back up the original key file.
If you are installing a Siebel Server that will communicate with an existing installation of Siebel Gateway Name Server on another computer, then make sure that the Siebel Gateway Name Server is running on that computer.
- (Optional) Shut down the Siebel CRM modules to be updated on this computer.
For example, stop the services for the Siebel Gateway Name Server, Siebel Server, and Oracle Configuration Manager. Also shut down any running instances of the Siebel Server Manager (srvrmgr). If you do not shut down the Siebel Gateway Name Server, Siebel Server, and Oracle Configuration Manager modules, then the installer shuts them down.
NOTE: Also stop the service for Siebel Management Agent, if it is running. This module was installed with Siebel Server for Siebel CRM version 8.1.1 or version 8.2.2 through version 8.1.1.11 or version 8.2.2.4. For Siebel Innovation Pack 2014 and later, Siebel Management Agent and Siebel Management Server are no longer provided or supported.
- (AIX only) Verify that the login ID performing the installation has permission to run
slibclean by asking the administrator to change the permission as follows:
chmod 6555 /usr/sbin/slibclean
- (AIX only) Execute the following command:
/usr/sbin/slibclean
- Log on to the server, using the Siebel service owner account that you recorded in the copy that you made earlier of the worksheet in Siebel Deployment Planning Worksheet.
- Open a new shell, and navigate to the Siebel image location for the current release. Then navigate to the directory where the installer is located. For example, for Oracle Solaris, navigate to
Siebel_Image /Solaris/Server/Siebel_Enterprise_Server/Disk1/install .
In this path, Siebel_Image is the directory for your version-specific Siebel network image, such as /Siebel_Install_Image/16.0.0.0 .
- Verify the permissions to the directory into which you will install the Siebel Enterprise Server. You must have write and execute permission.
- To start the Siebel Enterprise Server installer, enter the following command:
./runInstaller -jreLoc jre_location -invPtrLoc inventory_location
where:
jre_location is the full path of the installed Java Runtime Environment (JRE) software. On AIX, you must use the -jreLoc option. It is not required on other operating systems. For more information about the JRE requirements for AIX, see Requirements Specific to UNIX or Linux Operating Systems.
inventory_location is the full path of the oraInst.loc file (for example, /export/home/oraInst.loc ), which points to the OUI inventory location. Use the -invPtrLoc option if you want to specify an inventory pointer file other than the default.
Optionally, for an unattended installation, you can append the flags described in Installing Siebel Enterprise Server Components and Siebel Web Server Extension in Unattended Mode.
The Siebel Enterprise Server installer displays the Welcome screen.
- Click Next.
The Oracle Configuration Manager screen appears, which prompts for email contact information.
- Enter your My Oracle Support credentials and click Next.
Oracle Configuration Manager software is installed on the target computer. For more information, see About Oracle Configuration Manager.
The Select Installation Task screen appears.
- To perform a migration installation of the Siebel Enterprise Server software where an existing prior installation of Siebel CRM version 8.1.1.x, version 8.2.2.x, or version 15.x is present, choose Migration Installation, and click Next.
The Installation Migration Details screen appears.
- Confirm or select the name and location of your existing installation, and then click Next. Do the following:
- In the Summary screen, review the information presented.
This screen displays the location where the Siebel Enterprise Server software will be installed. Before you proceed, confirm that you have met all of the installation requirements, such as for disk space. Then do one of the following:
- When the Next button becomes available, the installation is complete. Click Next.
The Finish Installation screen appears. This screen indicates whether the installation was successful and shows the location of the installer log file. You can access this file to review the installation results. This screen also shows the new location of the original installation, which the installer moved before it performed the new installation.
- Review the report that is generated about any conflicts between your customized files and the files that are delivered by the Siebel Enterprise Server installer. As needed, copy any of your customized files from the original installation to the new migrated installation.
Conflicts are identified in the file overwrittenfiles_timestamp.log, which is created in the ORACLE_HOME /cfgtoollogs/oui directory (in the new Siebel Enterprise Server installation).
- To close the installer, click Close.
The Siebel Enterprise Server installation is now finished.
After the migration process is complete, then the installer starts the services for the Siebel Gateway Name Server, Siebel Server, and Oracle Configuration Manager. Note that the software that runs is part of the new installation you are migrating to, not part of the original installation.
- After installing the Siebel Enterprise Server software:
- Repeat this procedure on each computer with a Siebel Enterprise Server installation to be migrated.
