If you have a working Adaptive Server on
your system, do not install the Cluster Edition in the same $SYBASE directory.
If you must install other products
into the same directory, install the Cluster Edition last.
Warning! Adaptive Server 15.5 uses InstallAnywhere for installation while past versions of Adaptive Server as well as other Sybase products use InstallShield Multiplatform for installation. These two types of installers conflict and necessary files are silently overwritten. Therefore, do not install products with these different installers in the same directory.
Warning! If you install the Cluster Edition into the same directory as earlier
versions of the same components, the Cluster Edition overwrites
the older versions.
Installing other products on top of the Cluster Edition will
likely result in one or more of the products not working correctly.
If you perform a private installation
Sybase recommends that you install Adaptive Server on each node
in the cluster in its own directory.
InstallAnywhere supports 508 functionality with some limitation. Please note these limitations:
- The Choose Install Set screen — installer does not support the use of hot key to select install type. You must use the Tab key to change the focus and the space key to choose.
- The Choose Product Features screen you must use a mouse to choose features. The keyboard does not work.
