After you install the Mirror Replication Agent 12.6 software, and before you start the Mirror Replication Agent or run any Mirror Replication Agent utilities, you must set up the SYBASE environment on the Mirror Replication Agent host machine.
Setting up the SYBASE environment modifies the PATH environment variable, and sets the value of an environment variable (%SYBASE% on Microsoft Windows platforms, and $SYBASE on UNIX platforms) to point to the Mirror Replication Agent installation directory.
You must set up the SYBASE environment on the Mirror Replication Agent host
machine before you register license certificates.
To set up the SYBASE environment
Log in to the Mirror Replication Agent host machine using an operating system user account with authority to start, stop, and administer the Mirror Replication Agent instance (for example, the “sybase” user).
Execute the SYBASE batch or script file:
On Microsoft Windows platforms, enter the following at the command prompt:
c:\%SYBASE%\SYBASE
where %SYBASE% is the path to the Mirror Replication Agent installation directory.
On UNIX platforms, enter the following at the command prompt:
source $SYBASE/SYBASE.sh
where $SYBASE is the path to the Mirror Replication Agent installation directory.
