Hi there,
I’m planning a Siebel upgrade from 6.x to 8.1. It is the first time I do this type of upgrade but I have already read the Siebel Upgrade Guide and some tech notes on internet and I have read that I will need a two steps upgrade, first from 6.x to 7.7 and then from 7.7 to 8.1. Is that right ?
My main questions is whether I have to do the post upgrade tasks two times or if I need just one? (i.e in short need to know if task below 1e is necessary)
The plan I have is the following :
1 Siebel 6x to 7.7
1a- Perform Pre-Upgrade Task (6x -> 7.7)
1b- Upgrade Data and Schema (6x -> 7.7)
1c- Perform Repository Merge (6x -> 7.7)
1d- Perform Post Merge Tasks (6x -> 7.7)
1e- Perform Post upgrade Tasks (6x -> 7.7)
2 – SIEBEL 7.7 to 8.1
2a- Perform Pre-Upgrade Task from (7.7 -> 8.1)
2b- Upgrade Data and Schema (7.7 -> 8.1)
2c- Perform Repository Merge (7.7 -> 8.1)
2d- Perform Post Merge Tasks (7.7 -> 8.1)
2e- Perform Post upgrade Tasks (7.7 -> 8.1)
Thanks in advance
Luis

Hi,
Rajesh, we are facing a very similar challenge from 7.7 (SEA) to 8.1 (SIA). Could you share your findings?
Does the two step upgrade process mean 2 different upgrades with all the tasks for each upgrade?
Thanks a lot,
Ed
