completely as “en” is the default.

Note

Template XML should be upgraded on all Job Scheduler servers

pre-15.0.1 servers or servers where Job Scheduler is not installed.

Upgrading high availability

Using the following steps to upgrade high availability-enabled Adaptive
Server in active-active configuration:

1

Drop the high availability companionship. On the secondary server, use

isql

:

sp_companion <primary_server_name>, "drop"

go

2

Use the cluster system command to stop monitoring resources associated
with Adaptive Server on each cluster node.

3

Follow the upgrade steps in “Upgrading to Adaptive Server 15.0.2” on
page 68 to
upgrade each of the Adaptive Servers separately.

4

Run the new Adaptive Server installmaster script against the newly
upgraded Adaptive Servers.

5

Run the new Adaptive Server installhasvss script against the newly
upgraded Adaptive Servers.

6

In the new Adaptive Server installation area, follow the instructions in
Using Sybase Failover in A High Availability System to configure the
permission and ownership for $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/bin/sybha and
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/install/sybhauser.

7

In the new Adaptive Server installation area, modify high
availability-related files such as the RUN_server_file, and the SYBASE.csh
and SYBASE.sh files, if those files are required on that cluster platform.

8

Reconfigure each resource associated with Adaptive Server depending on
platform-specific requirements. For example, on Veritas Cluster, the
HAase resource properties, the RUN_server_file, and Sybase_home need
to be updated.
