Setting the $SYBASE environmental variable

During installation, the installer prompts you to identify to install Sybase IQ. The default installation directory is /opt/sybase.

Use the following formats to set the $SYBASE environment variable to the path of the directory where you plan to install Sybase IQ. In these examples, the SYBASE installation directory is /work/sybase.

For the tcsh or C shell (csh), add this line to the .cshrc file:

% setenv SYBASE /work/sybase

For the Korn (ksh), Bash, or Bourne (sh) shells, add this line to the .profile file:

% SYBASE=/work/sybase;
% export SYBASE
