This plugin provides several operations to enable both full repository migrations, as well as incremental repository migrations.  The following table identifies the plugin operations and the endpoint in which they will be executed on.

Workflow Step/plugin operation

Endpoint Selection

siebelBuild

Siebel Source

createWatermark

Siebel Target

siebelExport

Siebel Source

siebelImport

siebelDeploy

Siebel Target

Tip

Pre-deploy workflows

A Pre-deploy workflow can be utilized in cases where the content that was exported from the source Siebel needs to be validated prior to importing that to the next environment.  The Pre-deploy workflow must copy the zip file to target servers Siebel File system or target location.

Tip

Endpoint Selection

When adding plugin operations to the workflow, select the resource type (Siebel Source or Siebel Target) to identify the type of resource that the step should execute on. Image Removed

When the endpoints are mapped to the Target in topology they will be identified as either a source or a target. The workflow step assigned to this resource type will be the endpoint that this workflow step executes on.Image Removed

Primary Use Cases

  1. Initial migration of full repository to enable future incremental migrations

    1. Use build / deploy workflows utilizing the Siebel plugin operations with the full export type

    2. Select inputs to include the object types to be migrated as part of the full migration

  2. Migrate delivered changes using Siebel incremental migrations

    1. Use build / deploy workflows utilizing the Siebel plugin operations with the incremental export type

    2. Select inputs to include the object types to be migrated as part of the full migration

  3. Migrate delivered changes using Siebel incremental migrations and review export results prior to importing

    1. Use build / pre-deploy / deploy workflows utilizing the Siebel plugin operations

    2. Pre-deploy workflow would contain the steps to create the watermark file and generate the zip file from the export

    3. An additional step to copy the zip file to the target server would also need to be included in the pre-deploy workflow

    4. Output of the export can be reviewed prior to running the deploy step to import to the target environment

    5. Select inputs to include the object types to be migrated as part of the full migration

  4. Migrate delivered changes using Siebel full migrations

    1. Use build / deploy workflows utilizing the Siebel plugin operations with the full export type

    2. Select inputs to include the object types to be migrated as part of the full migration

Sample Workflows

Siebel Build - Use to perform build operation for the Incremental or Full Repository migration.

...

  • Includes the createWatermark, siebelincrementalExportsiebelExport, and siebelIncrementalImport siebelDeploy operations from the Siebel plugin. 

  • Sample XML source: Siebel Deploy.xml

  • No inputs are required

  • Recommended that the create Watermark step is executed on the Siebel Target endpoint

  • Recommended that the Incremental Export run on the Siebel Source endpoint

  • Recommended that the Incremental Import run on the Siebel Target endpoint
