Installation Guide 23
7 Decide where the Adaptive Server software will be installed. Make sure
there is sufficient available disk space. There cannot be any spaces in the
path name of the directory.
8 Know what product edition you are installing. The options are:
• Enterprise Edition
• Small Business Edition
• Developers Edition
• Express Edition
If you are installing the Small Business or Enterprise Edition, you must
know the license type under which Adaptive Server was licensed. For
more inforamtion about license types, see the “License types” in Chapter
3 “Getting and Using your License” of the Sybase Software Asset
Management User’s Guide.

installation. However, you may choose to specify the product edition and
license type later using
sp_lmconfig. For information on sp_lmconfig, see
Reference Manual:Procedures.

the severity of the events that will generate e-mail messages.

the:
•SMTP server host name
• Port number for an SMTP server
• E-mail return address
• Recipients of the notifications
• Severity level of an event that will trigger mail. Your choices are:
• None
