Special installation instructions  Using an existing SySAM installation

Release Bulletin Sybase® Enterprise Portal Enterprise Edition Version 5.0 for Sun Solaris

Pre-installation check

Check to see whether a SySAM installation is running on your system. You may need to preserve an earlier SySAM installation because it contains important license information for existing Sybase products.

If you have determined that your existing SySAM installation can be removed, follow the instructions in “Removing an existing SySAM installation.” Otherwise, follow the instructions in “Using an existing SySAM installation”.

StepsRemoving an existing SySAM installation

  1. Delete /usr/tmp/lockSYBASE if it exists on your system.

  2. Shut down the existing SySAM by entering the following, where filepath is the full path to the license.dat file:

    $SYBASE/SYSAM-1_0/bin/lmutil lmdown -c filepath
    
  3. Run the SySAM uninstaller. See Chapter 6, “Uninstalling Enterprise Portal 5.0” in the Enterprise Portal Installation Guide for instructions on uninstalling SySAM.
