You can upgrade manually without using a wizard or utility.
Prerequisites
Source
SYBASE.csh to set up the environment variables if you have not
already done so.
Task
To upgrade SAP ASE manually, use the upgrade
executable located in $SYBASE/ASE-16_0/bin.
- Shut down:
- The pre-16.0 SAP ASE server
- All additional servers that are using the same
$SYBASE directory as the SAP ASE
- If you installed ASE 16.0 into a directory other than the old ASE directory,
copy the server entry from the old interfaces
file to the new interfaces file.
- Copy the server_name.cfg file from old directory to the new
$SYBASE directory.
- Start the 16.0 server with the old master
device from the old server.
- Restart all the additional servers you shut down after
shutting down the pre-16.0 SAP ASE.
- Run upgrade. If problems occur, fix
them, and re-run the upgrade process.
- Reinstall the SAP ASE-supplied stored procedures to prevent any errors caused
from changes to the system catalogs.
