Verifying Your Connection to the Servers

Verify your connection to the servers.

Use isql to perform a quick test:
  • At the command prompt, enter the following, where server_name is the Adaptive Server name: 
    isql -Usa -P<password or leave it blank> -Sserver_name
    Warning!   The first time you log in to Adaptive Server, there is a default "sa" user name with all of the privileges but no password. After logging in for the first time, Sybase strongly advises you to change the system administrator’s password.

    You see the isql prompt if the login is successful.

  • At the isql prompt, enter:
    1> select @@version
2> go

    The output should show Adaptive Server at version 15.7.

    If you encounter errors, see the Troubleshooting Guide.
