CHAPTER 4 Plan: Writing a Plan and Getting Ready to Migrate
37
Note If you need to perform an operating system upgrade, do so before
migrating. Test the new system to be sure it’s working properly to avoid
introducing unrelated errors into the migration process.
Review Adaptive Server Interoperability with Other Sybase
Products
To ensure that the versions of other Sybase products in use at your site are
compatible with Adaptive Server 12.5, see
Technical Documents at
http://sybase.com/support/techdocs
or the ASE Migration Resources Web page at
http://sybase.com/support/techdocs/migration
for recent interoperability and
compatibility information.
Update Applications and System Administration Procedures
The following chapters in this manual describe ASE 12.5 upgrade issues:
• Chapter 5, “Implement: Making Required Application Changes”
• Chapter 6, “Implement: Making Database Administration Changes”
Migrating to Adaptive Server 12.5 requires you to review your current
applications and system administration procedures for any changes that could
cause system problems or unexpected processing results.
This is the most time-consuming part of migration preparation; choose a
method to do this that suits your needs and resources. Possible choices include:
• Writing your own scripts to examine and change applications
• Running the reserved word check from to 12.5 and using some of the tools
available such as the stored procedures
sp_checkreswords and
sp_procqmode. See the Reference Manual at
http://manuals.sybase.com:80/onlinebooks/group-
as/asg1250e/refman/@Generic__BookView
for information about these
stored procedures.
