What a client installation does

A typical client installation installs the network client components into a parent directory on a client machine.

Parent installation directory

The parent directory contains the files, scripts, and other objects required to support the Sybase IQ client. This document uses the variable %SYBASE% to refer to the client parent directory.

The default installation directory is C:\Sybase.You can, however, specify another target directory during the install if you use the interactive GUI installer, or by changing the silent installation script if you perform a silent install. This document uses the variable %SYBASE% to refer to the parent directory.

Sybase IQ installation directory

The Sybase IQ client installation directory, IQ-15_1, is a child of the %SYBASE% parent directory.

This directory contains subdirectories, scripts, and property files required to run Sybase IQ client. This document uses the variable %IQDIR151% to refer to the Sybase IQ installation directory on the client.

Demo database and samples directory

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\SybaseIQ contains subdirectories for the demo database and code sample installed with Sybase IQ. This document uses the variables %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SybaseIQ\demo and %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\SybaseIQ\samples to refer to these directories.
