Upgrading Sybase Search

This section describes the upgrade procedure for Sybase Search.

StepsTo upgrade Sybase Search

  1. Create a backup copy of the $SYBASE/OmniQ/config directory.

  2. Install DI Suite 1.1 in the same installation directory as the version from which you are upgrading. For instructions on installing DI Suite, see “Installing DI Suite components”.

    NoteThe current version of Sybase Search does not overwrite the earlier version as they are installed in two separate directories. This may lead to a port conflict when you try to run both versions simultaneously. However, to run both versions simultaneously, and to avoid the port conflict, change the port numbers. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Configuring Web Administration” of the Sybase Search 3.2 Administration and User’s Guide. You may also uninstall the previous version of Sybase Search from your machine using the DI Suite uninstaller.

  3. Make sure Sybase Search has been successfully installed. To check for valid installation, see “Check for a valid installation”.

  4. Import indexed data from the earlier version of Sybase Search to the current version. To do so, create document stores and import the previously indexed documents from file systems and databases. For more information, see Chapter 2, “Administering Sybase Search,” of the Sybase Search Administration and User’s Guide.
