About Language Deployment and Migration Installations

This topic is part of Installing and Deploying Siebel CRM with Multiple Languages.

When you perform a migration installation of Siebel CRM, files for all of the installed languages are automatically included. If you plan to perform a migration installation of Siebel CRM, and you also want to add languages to your existing deployment, then you have two options for how to do this, subject to limitations:

Add languages before installing Siebel CRM. Subject to limitations for your existing installed Siebel CRM server and client software, it might be possible or desirable for you to install new languages before you install Siebel CRM. To determine if this option is possible for the currently installed software in your Siebel deployment and, if so, to determine what steps are required, see the documentation that applies to your currently installed Siebel software version for information about this version.
Add languages after installing Siebel CRM. The installer for Siebel Enterprise Server and Siebel Application Interface supports adding languages to an existing installation of the same version, using GUI or silent mode installation methods. You would perform this task after performing the migration installation tasks for these modules.

For more information, see Limitations for Installing Additional Languages and Installing and Deploying Additional Languages.

For versions of the Siebel Installation Guide for your operating system for prior releases, see Siebel Bookshelf for each applicable release. For the Siebel Patchset Installation Guide for Siebel CRM for prior releases.

For example, if your current installation is Siebel CRM 8.1.1.10 on Microsoft Windows, then see Siebel Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows, version 8.1, Rev. D, and see Siebel Maintenance Release Guide, Version 8.1.1.10.

For a list of the languages supported by Siebel CRM, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support.
