Use the charset utility to change the default character set. At this time, you can only run this utility from the UNIX/Linux shell, so you must open a terminal window to do this. charset is at $SYBASE/ASE-15_0/bin/charset.
Changing Adaptive Server defaults
Run the charset utility to add the character set to Adaptive Server’s system catalogs.
Execute sp_configure to set the default character set.
Restart the server. The server comes up, performs any necessary reconfiguration it needs to do internally, and then shuts itself down. You can then restart it.
Complete these steps before you add any user data to
Adaptive Server. If your server contains data, follow the procedures
outlined in the System Administration Guide to
save and restore it.
