Usually in a Siebel Project, Siebel Developers have full control over Development Server and they are also responsible for SRF deployment in Siebel Server (that has been the case on the projects on which I have worked).
We had a Unix server and we used to deploy SRF at least once daily and sometimes it used to be more than one time. To save time and effort I developed a shell script that automated this task. It accepted the SRF File name that you want to deploy and performed all the tasks such as.
- Setting Siebel Environment
- Bring down Siebel Servers
- Swapping the SRF Files
- Bringing the Server UP
- Browser Script Generation
I thought it would be useful for admin starting in Siebel, so sharing with all
SRF Deployment Automation Script
P.S: You will need to change path according to your Siebel installation and also I made some changes in the script on the fly before posting it here. Let me know in case if you face any error while running this script.
