New Installation and Upgrade Utility

New Installation and Upgrade Utility

A new installation program, sybinit , provides a flexible menu-driven tool for managing configuration of SQL Server and Backup Server. It can be used interactively, or with a resource file if you need to install or upgrade many servers.

sybinit allows you to:

• Install a new Release 10.0 SQL Server or Backup Server

• Upgrade an existing SQL Server from a 4.8 or later release to Release 10.0

• Modify an existing 10.0 SQL Server to install and activate auditing

• Install languages and character sets

• Configure your default language, sort order or character set

• Install other Sybase System 10ä products

It also helps manage your system's interfaces file, providing a convenient tool for adding, deleting or changing interfaces file entries.

See your SYBASE SQL Server Installation Guide for information on running sybinit.
