Deploying the Siebel Migration Application

This procedure describes the steps for deploying the Siebel Migration application. This task is part of Configuring the Siebel Migration Application.

This task is required for new installations where you choose to use the Siebel Migration application. It is also required for migration installations where you choose to use the Siebel Migration application, because this application is new in Siebel CRM 17.0 and there is no prior configuration to migrate.

In order to use the Siebel Migration application, the Remote component group must be enabled in the source environment and the EAI and Workflow component groups must be enabled in both the source and target environments. The workflow named File Transfer Workflow must be active in both the source and target environments. Synchronize the Siebel Server components on both environments and restart the entire Siebel CRM deployment. Before you execute the migration plan, make sure that the relevant server components are active that the Siebel Migration application uses to perform the migration. For more information about using the Siebel Migration application, see Siebel Database Upgrade Guide.

NOTE:  After deployment, the Siebel Migration profile is in a read-write state. You can update configuration settings and redeploy the profile to propagate the updates to the Siebel Migration application.
