CHAPTER 5 Upgrading Adaptive Server
Installation Guide 67
sqlupgrade displays the Status Output window.View the Status Output
window for the completion status and informational messages about the
upgrade process.
Warning! Do not interrupt the upgrade, and do not try to connect to
Adaptive Server or run any stored procedures while the upgrade is in
progress.
You can also check the progress of the upgrade by viewing the
sqlupgrade
log in $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/init/logs/sqlupgradeMMDD.NNN.
Where MM is the month, DD is the date, and NNN is a three-digit number
identifying the srvbuild session.
After all pre-upgrade checks are successful, the old server is shut down
and the new Adaptive Server
dataserver binary is started on the old master
device.
sqlupgrade internally runs the upgrade binary to perform the
upgrade.
If the upgrade is successful, a “Done” message is displayed in the Status
Output window.
Note On some UNIX platforms, the sqlupgrade utility may not return you
to the command prompt even though the upgrade has completed
successfully. To exit the utility, press Ctrl+C.
16 The upgrade process:
• Creates the RUN_servername file
•Runs the installmaster script
17 Check that the upgrade has been successful by logging in to the server and
checking
select @@version to confirm that it is at 15.0.2. Also,
sp_configure “upgrade version” should return 15000.

“Troubleshooting.”
When the upgrade completes successfully, you can:
• Click OK to specify another server to upgrade, or
• Exit
sqlupgrade, and go to “Post-upgrade tasks” on page 69.
