Upgrading 11.0.1 to 11.0.3
Why is it required that, to upgrade, the installation needs to be made into a new sybase directory? More importantly, what is the easiest way to maintain your directory structure without making symbolic links for every upgrade. I'd like to keep the following structure: /opt/sybase /opt/sybase/bin /opt/sybase/data .... and for every upgrade, I'd like to keep the binaries, etc. in the same location so that I don't have to modify scripts to point to new binary, data directories. What am I missing?

If you are willing to accept the risk of a longer outage in case you need to rollback to 11.0.1, you can continue to use the same directory for each new release. During the upgrade, both the old and new directories must exist. After a successful upgrade, you can overwrite the 11.0.1 with 11.0.3. I would not recommend this procedure for a major product upgrade (i.e. 11.0.3 to 11.5), and you should also analyze possible side effects on other Sybase products that may be installed in the same directory (Rep Server, Open Client, etc.). This procedure has worked successfully for me for 11.0.1 to 11.0.2, and 11.0.2 to 11.0.3: -- backup the current (11.0.1) directory structure -- install 11.0.3 in a separate directory -- copy the <server>.cfg from 11.0.1 to 11.0.3 directory -- check database consistency; backup everything -- upgrade using sybinit in the 11.0.3/install directory (be sure to read the installation guide for details) -- verify upgrade; check database consistency; backup everything -- shutdown 11.0.3 server -- recursively copy 11.0.3 directory to 11.0.1 directory -- if you have an 11.0.3 EBF/SWR, install in a separate directory and recursively copy to the target directory -- restart server -- run any install .sql scripts required for the EBF/SWR As with any upgrade, be prepared to rollback to the previous vesion. Be sure you have valid database dumps and Sybase product directory backups before beginning the upgrade.

Just my 2 cents worth ... At my current client we often have several Sybase 'products' installed on one machine ... a couple different EBF versions of SQL Server ... a couple EBF versions of Rep Server ... the old and new versions of OpenCS .... and on test/development boxes we will have ASE. Except for ASE we actually have this kind of environment in production. Since we upgrade/modify different Sybase products at different times ... and some of these have different 'common' binaries (e.g., isql, bcp, defncopy) ... we just keep each version of Sybase products in their own directories and make sure we use the correct settings for SYBASE and PATH. Yeah, a little messy ... but not as messy as trying to sort out which versions of which programs go where?? *ack* -- Mark Parsons Iron Horse, Inc. [Team Sybase]

Upgrade 11.0.3.3 to 11.9.2.1
Hello ASE guru, We just did a ASE upgrade to 11.9.2.1 from 11.0.3.3 and noticed that the sybsystemprocs database was extended by 2 MB on master device. (before upgrade size was 120 MB and after upgrade the size is 122MB) Is this a normal behavior of upgrade? any harm in leaving 2 MB on master device? Will upgrade fail if there is no room for this 2 MB on master device?
