The installation program The installer unloads Bourne shell and C shell files containing environment variables in:
$SYBASE/SYBASE.sh
$SYBASE/SYBASE.csh

Modify the component’s RUN environment using the environment variable values from the shell files, or,
Update the component’s RUN environment immediately before invoking the component, as described below.

the default location for $SYBASE. If you want to change
the target directory during installation, use /my/preferred/sybase_home instead.
