Migrating from ASE 12.5 to ASE 15.0

Mirror Replication Agent for ASE migration to support Sybase ASE 12.5 to Sybase ASE 15.0 migration is a similar process to migrating from Mirror Replication Agent for ASE 12.6 to Mirror Replication Agent for ASE 15.0.

NoteYou need to verify that the Mirror Replication Agent is quiesced prior to migrating from Sybase ASE 12.5 to ASE 15.0, that is, the replication environment must have completed processing of all transactions prior to migrating. This precaution is needed because the Mirror Replication Agent moves the truncation point to the end of the log during Sybase ASE 12.5 to Sybase ASE 15.0 migration.

StepsTo migrate from Sybase ASE 12.5 to Sybase ASE 15.0

  1. Follow the steps that Sybase ASE provides in their documentation for upgrading from 12.5 to 15.0.

    NoteFor the latest update refer to the Release Bulletin for the Mirror Replication Agent.

  2. After migrating Sybase ASE, re-start the Mirror Replication Agent and issue the ra_migrate command.

NoteIf you are migrating from both Mirror Replication Agent for ASE 12.6 to Mirror Replication Agent for ASE 15.0, and from Sybase ASE 12.5 to 15.0, you need to migrate only once.
