Upgrading Backup Server

You can upgrade Backup Server after you upgrade Adaptive Server. The procedures for upgrading Backup Server are similar. XP Server does not have a formal upgrade process.

1. If you are upgrading during the initial server installation, select:
   • Upgrade Existing Servers from the drop-down menu when the installer prompts Build
   • Upgrade Adaptive Server and Backup Servers.
   This launches the sqlupgrade utility. Click OK.
2. If you are upgrading after the initial installation, start the sqlupgrade utility from the command line. Enter:

   $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/bin/sqlupgrade

3. Launch the Server configuration utility if it is not already running. Select Start > Programs > Sybase > Adaptive Server Enterprise > Server Configuration.
4. Select Backup Server from the icons on the left and click Upgrade Server
5. Enter the name of the old Sybase directory. Enter the name of the old Adaptive Server directory such as ASE-12_0. Enter the name of the old OpenClient/Server directory such as OCS-12_0, then click Continue.
6. In the Existing Servers window, choose the server you want to upgrade, then click Continue.
7. Back up all existing databases before upgrading. Once you have done so, select Yes.
8. When the upgrade is complete, the syconfig utility displays the message, Upgrade completed successfully. Click OK.
   Note: To check the upgrade, use a text editor to view the log file in %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\init\logs
