If $SYBASE is installed on the local disk, then $SYBASE on both companions must point to the same directory path name. This is not necessary if $SYBASE is installed on the shared disk. You can accomplish this by either:
Making sure that the $SYBASE release directory on each companion is created in the same directory: or
If the companions have the $SYBASE release directory in different locations, create a directory with the same path on both companions that acts as a symbolic link to the actual $SYBASE release directory.
For example, even though primary companion MONEY1 has a release directory of /usr/u/sybase1 and PERSONNEL1 has uses /usr/u/sybase2 as its release directory, $SYBASE must point to the same path.
Both MONEY1 and PERSONNEL1 have /SYBASE, which they establish as a symbolic link to their respective $SYBASE release directories. On MONEY1, /SYBASE is a link to /usr/u/sybase1, and on PERSONNEL1, /SYBASE is a link to /use/u/sybase2.
The remote monitors for either companion do not function if the value of $SYBASE is not the same for both companions.
