The upgrade eligibility tests verify that your current server meets the
requirements for upgrading to the new version. (The online help provides
a partial list of what the upgrade eligibility tests check.) If your current
server fails the upgrade eligibility test, you must fix the problem.
14 Adaptive Server 11.9.x did not automatically create a
sybsystemprocs
database and device. Unless you have created one, the eligibility test fails.
The Back button launches the “Specify
sybsystemprocs” window.
Enter the full path to the
sybsystemprocs device and at least 124MB for the
sybsystemprocs database. Click OK to continue with the eligibility test.
