Setting Up File Prepare and Deploy

Siebel Migration File Prepare and Deploy service does the following:

• Migrates file artifacts from the source environment to the target environment.

• Migrates only file artifacts from Siebel Application Interface (AI) and the Siebel File System.

• If the target environment has multiple Application Interface nodes, it migrates all file artifacts to all the Application Interface nodes.

• Supports incremental file Migration (migrates only new or modified files).

• Uses the Checksum utility to check whether the file is modified or not.

The list of directories considered for Migration are configured in the filemig_config.properties file. The filemig_config.properties file is located in the following directory:

<Application Interface Home>\applicationcontainer_external\webapps

The filemig_config.properties file:

• Contains three properties:

  • inclusion-dir

  • exclude-dir

  • exclude-extension

• Considers all the files from the list of directories provided in the inclusion-dir property.

• Ignores all the directories mentioned in the exclude-dir from the include-dir only.

• Ignores the files whose extensions are part of exclude-extension property

Sample filemig_config.properties file:

inclusion-dir=%ORACLE_HOME%/applicationcontainer_external/siebelwebroot/files, %FS_HOME%/att
exclude-dir=%ORACLE_HOME%/applicationcontainer_external/siebelwebroot/files/3rdParty exclude-extension=xps, pdf

Where:

• %ORACLE_HOME% is the AI installation directory.

• %FS_HOME% is the Siebel File System Path.

You can add multiple directories separated by a comma.
