Error in DBSTOP example Adaptive Server IQ 12.4.0

The following information should be added to the STOP DATABASE statement in the Adaptive Server IQ Reference.

When you issue

STOP DATABASE database-name

the database-nameis the name specified in the -nparameter when the database is started, or in the DBN (DatabaseName) connection parameter. This name is typically the file name of the database file that holds the Catalog Store, without the .db extension.

9.1.12 Error in DBSTOP example

The Introduction to Adaptive Server IQ documentation on the Stop utility is incomplete. In the section “Shutting down a database server,” in Chapter 3, the UNIX system example shows no command parameters.

When you stop the server with the DBSTOP command, you need to specify the same parameters as when you started the server. Using a configuration file to start the server ensures that you will be able to find these parameters when you need them.

9.1.13 Disconnect details omitted

The following information was omitted from the Introduction to Adaptive Server IQ: It should be added in Chapter 4 after the section titled “Viewing connected users”:

Disconnecting users

If there are multiple connected users, Sybase Central lists them when you attempt to disconnect.

When you choose Tools —> Disconnect —> Adaptive Server IQ, a Filter Objects dialog box appears. Each database name is qualified by a server name, for example:

myserver.asiqdemo (DBA)

Select the desired database to disconnect and click OK.

9.1.14 Configuration files do not accept quotes

Do not use either single or double quotes when specifying server switches in configuration files.
