  2. When prompted by the installer, enter the database password which is not stored in any configured files.

  3. When installation of the update release completes, the installer calls the PostInstallDBSetup utility and updates the status returned. That is, the installer displays whether the PostInstallDBSetup utility ran successfully or failed.

    The PostInstallDBSetup utility executes the required seed, schema, and manifest changes to the Siebel database. If there are failures with Post Installation Database Update, then re-execute the PostInstallDBSetup utility in standalone mode, after fixing any errors. For more information, see Rerunning Post Installation Database Update.

    After the PostInstallDBSetup utility has completed running, a Post Installation Database Update Report is automatically generated.
