Changing Adaptive Server configuration

Figure 1-1: Communicating with a server using interfaces file

During installation, you use the srvbuild utility to create and configure a new server. The srvbuild process adds entries to the interfaces file for your new Adaptive Server, Backup Server, Monitor Server, and XP Server.

For instructions on how to modify existing interfaces file entries using dsedit and dscp or to create new interfaces file entries for existing servers, Chapter 6, “Using the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol as a Directory Service.”

Changing Adaptive Server configuration

Use sp_configure to change the configuration of Adaptive Server. To change the configuration of several servers, enter the sp_configure information in a script. For details on using sp_configure, see the System Administration Guide and the Reference Manual.

For information about configuring languages, character sets, and sort orders, see Chapter 7, “Customizing Localization for Adaptive Server.”

For information about configuring Adaptive Server to use high availability features, see Using Sybase Failover in a High Availability Environment.
