The Siebel CRM installation and configuration process requires multiple tasks that you perform in a general sequence that depends on your installation case. For more information, see:
Installation Guidelines
Follow these general guidelines for your installations:
- Before installing any Siebel module, review all documented requirements.
- You install Siebel Gateway Name Server once for each Siebel Enterprise.
- You install Siebel Database Configuration Utilities once, typically with the first Siebel Server installed.
- In general, you can install each item in sequence and perform its associated configuration tasks, or you can install all of the items and then perform the configuration tasks. However, some requirements apply to the sequence in which you must perform configuration tasks.
- Requirements associated with authenticating access to the Siebel Gateway Name Server can affect your overall installation and configuration process, particularly for a new deployment with no existing Siebel database. This issue affects the installation and configuration task sequence, as shown in the illustrations in the two roadmap topics that follow. For more information, see Requirements for Siebel Gateway Name Server Authentication.
- Multiple instances of Siebel Server and Siebel Web Server Extension (SWSE) are typically installed for medium-sized or larger deployments.
- Special issues apply for migration installations of Siebel Innovation Pack 2016. For more information, see Additional Tasks for Migration Installations.
- It is recommended that, after you install the current release for each applicable Siebel module, you install the latest Siebel Patchset release, where available. For more information, see About Siebel CRM Releases.
- You must activate license keys for Siebel Innovation Pack 2016. You run the License Key Activation utility after installing a new database, running Incremental Repository Merge (for migration installations), or completing a full database upgrade.
