Reviewing Obsolete Objects in the Siebel Repository
Environments: Development environment only.
Platforms: Windows, UNIX, IBM z/OS.
Objects that were available in the Prior Siebel Repository but are not available in the New Siebel Repository are obsolete. After performing the repository merge, you can generate a list of obsolete objects using Siebel Tools. Objects that were available in the Prior Siebel Repository are compared with the objects that are available in the New Siebel Repository.
Requirement: The repository merge must have been successful. See Reviewing the Siebel Repository Merge Log Files.
To generate a list of obsolete objects
In Siebel Tools, from the Screens menu, choose Application Upgrader, and then Application Upgrade Object List.
In the Application Upgrades list, select the record of the successful merge.
Click Query.
Enter your query criteria in the Object Differences list:
Click in the In Prior Standard field so that a check mark appears.
Click in the Added or New Standard field so that a check mark appears.
Click in the In Prior Customized field so that a check mark appears. Then click in the field again so that no check mark appears.
Click in the Attribute field so that a check mark appears. Then click in the field again so that no check mark appears.
Press Enter to run the query.
Deleted objects appear in the Object Differences list. You can filter the objects displayed by using the Top Parent Type and Object Type fields.
Review the list carefully to determine that obsolete objects that have been deleted will not have an adverse effect on upgraded applications.
