Shutting down Adaptive Server Enterprise and Backup Server

  1. Go to the $SYBASE directory, and enter:

    source SYBASE.csh
    
  2. From a command prompt, enter:

    isql -Usa -P -Sservername
    

    servername is the name of the machine where Adaptive Server is installed.

  3. At the isql prompt, enter:

    shutdown SYB_BACKUP
    go
    
    shutdown with nowait
    go
    

NoteThis command shuts down both the Adaptive Server Enterprise Data Server and Backup Server. Monitor Server shuts down automatically once Data Server is shut down.

If you get a CT-LIBRARY error indicating that it cannot connect to the database, then Adaptive Server Enterprise is already shut down.
