Siebel Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows > Creating the Siebel Installation Image on the Network > About the Siebel Network ImageFor each Siebel Business Applications release representing the products that you have purchased, you run the Siebel Image Creator utility to create a Siebel network image, which is also called a Siebel image. All installations of Siebel Business Applications modules must be performed from a Siebel image. The Siebel Image Creator is also called the Network Image Creator. Unless otherwise stated in documentation for a particular release, each Siebel release includes Siebel Image Creator and you use this utility to create a version-specific Siebel image. To install all of the Siebel CRM software for Siebel Innovation Pack 2017, you require an image of a single version: Siebel CRM version 17.0. You must create any network image as described in this chapter. For Siebel Enterprise Server (including Siebel Application Interface), Siebel Web Client, Siebel Tools, and any other modules you require, create a network image for version 17.0. Installing these modules is a one-step task. The installers perform a complete installation of the current release. Siebel CRM version 17.0 is a base release. No network images for prior releases, such as Siebel CRM version 8.1.1 or version 8.2.2, are required or used. For existing deployments, you use the same installers to install the current release as a migration installation. In addition to creating a Siebel image for Siebel CRM version 17.0, you will also create Siebel images for any Siebel Patchset releases that you will install, such as version 17.1, 17.2, and so on, where available. For more information about Siebel Patchset releases, see About Siebel CRM Releases. You must allocate disk space on the network for the Siebel images that you will use as the source location for Siebel installations. Retain all of the Siebel images until they no longer apply. Also retain all of the Siebel media files, particularly the JAR files that you use to create the Siebel images. The Siebel image is always of application type Siebel Industry Applications. The application type Siebel Business Applications (formerly used for Siebel Cross-Industry Applications) no longer applies. For more information about the implications of this change, see 549362.1 (Article ID) and related articles on My Oracle Support. This document often refers to Siebel Business Applications in a generic way that currently means the same thing as Siebel Industry Applications. The remaining topics in this chapter describe how to obtain the Siebel media files from Oracle and how to create a Siebel image. About the JAR File for the Local Database for Siebel ToolsYou can install a new local database for Siebel Tools that uses Oracle Database XE. When you are creating the network image for the current release, also include the corresponding Siebel media JAR file. The JAR file is SBA_17.0.0.0.0_Base_Windows_Oracle_XE_Local_Database_64_Bit.jar. This JAR file provides the 64-bit local database for users of Microsoft Windows. When you select Siebel Tools in Image Creator, select Oracle XE Local Database 64 Bit. When you run Siebel Image Creator, the corresponding installer is placed into the following directory:
When users run the Siebel Tools installer, they can choose to include the local database, which is silently installed. About the JAR File for the Sample Database for Siebel Web ClientYou can install a new sample database for Siebel Web Client that uses Oracle Database XE. When you are creating the network image for the current release, also include the corresponding Siebel media JAR file. The JAR file is SBA_17.0.0.0.0_Base_Windows_Oracle_XE_Sample_Database_64_Bit.jar. This JAR file provides the 64-bit sample database for users of Microsoft Windows. When you select Siebel Web Client in Image Creator, select Oracle XE Sample Database 64 Bit. When you run Siebel Image Creator, the corresponding installer is placed into the following directory:
When users run the Siebel Web Client installer, they can choose to include the sample database, which is silently installed. Related Topics |
