Migrating (Lift-And-Shift) Existing Siebel CRM Deployments

The Siebel Lift utility is a command-line utility, developed in Python, that's available from SCM. The main functions of this utility are as follows:

• Creates deployment artifacts from an existing deployment, on premises or in the cloud, of Siebel CRM. Deployment artifacts are created in a staging location.
• Reads the deployment artifacts and progresses the migration pipeline for your Siebel CRM deployment.

You can use a shared network file storage or an OCI object storage with the Lift utility. For more information, see the "Using a Shared Network File System During Lift-And-Shift" section of Deploying Siebel CRM using SCM.

Greenfield deployments of Siebel CRM don't use the Siebel Lift utility.

For details about this Lift utility, see Downloading and Running the Siebel Lift Utility. References to OCI Object Storage in the "Downloading and Running Lift Utility" section are applicable primarily when deploying Siebel CRM on OCI or OC3. A shared NFS can be used whenever applicable, see the "Using a Shared Network File System During Lift-And-Shift" section of Deploying Siebel CRM using SCM.
