Before you attempt to install DirectConnect, you must complete the following pre-installation tasks.
To prepare for installation
Back up the system environment before starting the installation.
Be sure to make a copy of your environment if you are
installing DirectConnect and other Sybase products on the same machine.
You can use this saved copy to restore the environment variables
to their original values, if needed.
Complete the installation worksheet for your platform in Appendix A, “Installation Worksheets.”
(Optional) Set the environment variable %SYBASE% to point to the desired location where DirectConnect will be installed.
