How to create additional Adaptive Server and Backup Server?

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I installed ASE 15.7 Developer Edition for Linux x86_64 on my RHEL 6.4 box using command line. After installation completed, I was able to create a default Adaptive Server "VM_01_S1" and its Backup Server "VM_01_S1_BS".

Now I'm wondering how I can create additional Adaptive Server and Backup Server (say "VM_01_S2" and "VM_01_S2_BS") using the the same installation in command line. Also I'd like to create them with 8K page size (for the default one I used 4K page size).

Could you please shed some light on this?

Hi Jerry,

You can build additional servers at:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/bin

./srvbuild

Make sure you have xwindows open and you set the DISPLAY environment variable
(Example- start Exceed on Windows, setenv DISPLAY 10.168.131.229:0.0)

I don't see an option to change a backup server's page size.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for your reply. Since I didn't install GUI support on my RHEL 6.4, I cannot use "srvbuild" at all.

However, I was able to use "srvbuildres" utility with resource file to create additional Adaptive Server and Backup Server. I reused and modified the resource files generated by the initial setup for "VM_01_S1" and "VM_01_S1_BS", so that I can create "VM_01_S2" and "VM_01_S2_BS" with 8K page size.
