Installing the Siebel Database Schema and Seed Data

The Siebel Database, which also serves as the default authentication mechanism, has now to be installed. The installation will include the creation of tables and indexes as well as the import of seed data, including for example the administrative user SADMIN, responsibilities for controlling access to Siebel Views, List of Values data for dropdown lists, and the Siebel metadata repository.

The Siebel Database configuration begins with preparing and running the SQL script in the grantusr.sql file provided by Oracle. The exact steps for preparing and executing this file are described in Chapter 4.

After executing the SQL script in the grantusr.sql file, we prepare the environment, launch the Siebel Configuration Wizard, and execute the steps to install a new Siebel database.

To finalize the database configuration, we have to execute the Siebel Upgrade Wizard. The Siebel Upgrade Wizard's purpose and functionality has been described in detail in Chapter 4.
