Database administration utilities

SQL Anywhere includes a set of utility programs for performing database administration tasks. Each of the utilities can be accessed from one or more of Sybase Central, Interactive SQL, or at a command prompt.

For platform availability, see [external link] http://www.sybase.com/detail?id=1002288.

The administration utilities use a set of registry entries or .ini files. See Registry and INI files.
