When you have finished editing your resource file, you can run the file using sqlupgraderes.
sqlupgraderes is a command line tool; therefore, unlike sqlupgrade, it does not require any X libraries.
Source the version 15.0 SYBASE.csh file before running sqlupgraderes and set OLDSYBASE and OLDSYBASE_ASE.
To execute sqlupgraderes, at the UNIX prompt, enter the following, where resource_file specifies the resource file containing the attributes that describe the server to upgrade:
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/bin/sqlupgraderes -r resource_file
