Siebel 8.2.2 Installation Changes

Hi Friends,

Recently I got chance to install Siebel 8.2.2, most of the installation steps are similar to 8.1.x with few interesting differences. I am going to pinpoint those differences in this post.

1)  It supports windows 64 bit

2)  ImageCreator.exe is no more available for creation of installation image. You have to use snic.bat

3) You have to run setup.bat(Windows) or ./runinstaller(Unix/Linux) to invoke installer

4)  It uses OUI (Oracle universal installer wizard) for installation.
     One of the advantages of OUI is that it supports cloning
5) Configuration tool will not be invoked automatically after installation, you have  

     to invoke it explicitly.

6)  To prevent session hijacking, session IDs in cookies are encrypted using key given in epps.cfg

7)  8.2.2 license keys are not available on licensecodes.oracle.com.
     8.1 all inclusive keys will work just fine with Public Sector 8.2.2
