Starting the Cluster

Start the cluster by starting all the instances associated with the cluster on each node in the cluster.

You can start a cluster:
  • Normally, after a graceful shutdown.
  • After a system failure.
Note: Sybase recommends that you do not alter the runserver files used for normal cluster startup.
  1. Start each cluster instance from the node on which it runs:
    For example, start the "ase1" instance:
    startserver -f $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/install/RUN_ase1
  2. Log in to each node on which another instance will run, and execute startserver.
    For example, to start the "ase2" instance on "blade2":
    1. On "blade2," move to the $SYBASE directory.
    2. Issue:
      startserver -f $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/install/RUN_ase2
