About Defining Upgrade Kits

Defining an upgrade kit is the process of running the Upgrade Kit Wizard and entering data concerning a single Siebel Anywhere component that is to be upgraded. After all necessary data has been provided, the Upgrade Kit Wizard invokes the Upgrade Kit Builder server component, which uses the gathered data to build the upgrade kit.

Note: It is important to gather the data to be entered before you run the Upgrade Kit Wizard. For more information about planning your upgrade kit and gathering the necessary data, see Planning and Preparing to Use Siebel Anywhere .

For more information about running the Upgrade Kit Wizard, see Running the Upgrade Kit Wizard. For general information about the Upgrade Kit Wizard and the Upgrade Kit Builder, see Siebel Anywhere Wizards and Utilities.

For language-specific upgrade kits, use the instructions for the appropriate upgrade kit type. For example, use the instructions for defining a CFG upgrade kit to define a language-specific CFG upgrade kit.

Note: If your upgrade includes multiple components, then use the instructions in this chapter to create an upgrade kit for each component.

After you define your upgrade kit, you must proceed to activate, apply, and distribute it. For more information about these tasks, see Activating, Applying, and Distributing Upgrade Kits.
