To start the secondary nodes, install SAP Sybase IQ
16.0, then synchronize
from the coordinator node. When you migrate a query node, it becomes a reader
node.
Back up the query node files. Back up existing catalog .db,
catalog .log and
iqmsg files.
Issue a dbbackup command to synchronize
servers. You might have a different name for the query node's catalog
file, depending on your configuration. In the following example, q1.db is
the catalog file name on the query node:
SQL Anywhere Backup Utility Version 11.0.0.5020 Debug(702 of 699 pages, 100% complete)Transaction log truncatedDatabase backup completed
If your query nodes do not use a different catalog
database name, skip to step 4.
Step 2 synchronizes the catalog database file from the coordinator. If you prefer
to use the same catalog database file name as the
coordinator, adjust any server start and stop
administration scripts on the secondary nodes to use
the new name.
To retain the same catalog database file names:
Rename the synchronized coordinator catalog database file name. For example,
assuming the coordinator file was called
main.db and the secondary
server was called q1.db,
enter:
mv main.db q1.db
rename main.db q1.db
Rename the log file for the query node. This is necessary as the file renamed
above still contains an internal pointer to
main.log:
