Upgrading Sybase ETL Server on Windows

Before upgrading ETL Server, go to the Windows Task Manager and click the Processes tab to check for any active GridNode.exe process. If a GridNode.exe process is running, select it and click End Process.

Make sure “Show Processes From All Users” is selected.

Install the new version of ETL Server. You can:

Leave the earlier version and install the new version in a different directory. See “Installing Sybase ETL Server”.

Uninstall the earlier version and install the new version. See “Uninstalling Sybase ETL Server”.

If you are uninstalling the earlier version, create a backup of the ODBC or native connectivity files, which includes the .odbc.ini file or the ODBC or native drivers.
Start the new ETL Server.
- To start the ETL Server directly, enter:
```
GridNode
```
- To start the ETL Server as a service, enter:
```
GridNode --install
```
To verify whether the server has started, go to the Windows Task Manager and click the Processes tab to check if the GridNode.exe process is running.
