Process of Upgrading a Siebel Production Environment

Platforms: Windows and UNIX only. This topic does not apply to IBM z/OS.

To perform this process, you must be able to execute ODBC commands on the production database from within the production environment. For more information, see About the Siebel Database Configuration Wizard Utilities. For help executing ODBC commands within the test environment, create a service request (SR) on My Oracle Support.

You must, however, perform the upgrade in the proper order. For information on general planning, see this chapter as well as Siebel Database Upgrade Planning and Application Planning for a Siebel Upgrade To begin the process of upgrading your Siebel database, see Preparing for Siebel Database Upgrade then refer to each subsequent chapter.

This topic lists the tasks required to transition your test environment to production. Print this topic and use it as a checklist when doing the upgrade. Complete the steps in the order shown.

Note: If you are performing a production environment upgrade on IBM z/OS, then see Siebel Database Upgrade Guide for DB2 for z/OS.
