This chapter contains reference information on the programs and database administration utilities that are part of Sybase IQ. The utilities can be accessed from Interactive SQL, or as command-line programs.
For an introduction to Interactive SQL, also called dbisql, see Chapter 2, “Using Interactive SQL (dbisql)”.
For comprehensive documentation about Sybase Central, see the Sybase Central online help. For an introduction to the Sybase Central database administration tool, see Chapter 3, “Running and Connecting to Servers” in the Introduction to Sybase IQ.
The administration utilities use a set of system environment variables which are described in Chapter 1, “File Locations and Installation Settings” in Reference: Building Blocks, Tables, and Procedures.
Alternatively, you can use a set of SQL statements that perform some administration tasks.. These statements are documented in Chapter 1, “SQL Statements” in Reference: Statements and Options.
