Before you begin the installation process, complete the
administrative tasks.
- Back up your current system.
- Create the “sybase” user account and make sure it has read, write, and execute permissions.
- Verify that the directory location for the Sybase installation has sufficient space.
- Verify that your network software is configured.
Sybase software uses network software, even if Adaptive Server and Sybase
client applications are installed on a machine that is not connected to a
network.
