Upgrading Job Scheduler

CHAPTER 5 Upgrading Adaptive Server

7Back up all existing databases before upgrading. Once you have done so, select Yes.

8When the upgrade is complete, the syconfig utility displays the message, “Upgrade completed successfully.” Select OK.

Repeat this procedure to upgrade Monitor Server.

Note To check the upgrade, use the Windows Notepad to view the log file in %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\init\logs

After upgrading to the new Adaptive Server, perform the following steps to upgrade Job Scheduler.

Note You must have $SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/bin directory in $PATH so the isql executable is accessible.

vUpgrading Job Scheduler

1Copy the directory services entry for JSAGENT (or jsagent) from the old server to the new server.

2Make sure your new server is running.

3Stop the Job Scheduler. From isql, issue:

sybmgmtdb..sp_js_wakeup "stop_js", 1 go

4Ensure that at least 9000 locks are configured. If the number of locks on the server is less than 9000, use sp_configure to increase the number of locks:

sp_configure "number of locks", 9000

5 Upgrade the internal Job Scheduler SQL using isql:

use sybmgmtdb go

dbcc upgrade_object go

Sybase 15.0.2, a product of the Sybase corporation (now SAP), is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that provides robust solutions for data management, security, and performance. This version builds upon its predecessors, offering improved features and enhancements that cater to both enterprises and developers.

One of the standout features of Sybase 15.0.2 is its advanced performance capabilities. The version introduces optimization enhancements such as the Query Optimizer, which is designed to ensure efficient execution of complex queries. This optimizer analyzes SQL statements and tables to choose the most efficient means of retrieval, thus reducing execution time and improving the overall performance of the database.

Sybase 15.0.2 supports improved scalability, allowing organizations to handle increased workloads without significant changes to their infrastructure. This scalability is crucial for businesses experiencing growth, as it ensures that performance remains consistent and reliable.

Another notable characteristic is the robust security architecture integrated within Sybase 15.0.2. The system includes features like data encryption, user authentication, and authorization mechanisms, making it suitable for environments that handle sensitive information. Database administrators can implement fine-grained access controls to manage user permissions effectively.

Moreover, Sybase 15.0.2 boasts support for a wide range of programming languages and frameworks. This versatility allows developers to build applications using their preferred tools, promoting productivity and ease of integration into existing systems. The database management system also supports various platforms, including Windows and UNIX, enabling diverse deployments across different environments.

In addition to these technological enhancements, Sybase 15.0.2 emphasizes data integrity through its robust transaction management system. It implements the ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) to ensure that all database transactions are processed reliably, thereby maintaining the integrity of data even in high-transaction scenarios.

In conclusion, Sybase 15.0.2 is a feature-rich RDBMS that combines performance, scalability, security, and flexibility. Its advanced capabilities not only enhance data management for organizations but also provide a solid foundation for developers seeking to create efficient and secure applications. The improvements in this version make it a compelling choice for enterprises looking to optimize their database operations in an increasingly data-driven world.
