Summary :
To update the Sybase ASE 15.7 database server and Sybase ODBC and JDBC drivers, follow the designated upgrades process provided. Electronic Software Deliveries (ESD) and SAPCAR archives are used for ASE and driver updates, respectively. Download the necessary files from the SAP Service Marketplace, prepare the existing ASE installation by verifying the current database version, and cease all system functions. Install the downloaded software packs using ASE owner credentials - ensuring all executables are permissioned correctly. Post-installation, restart system processes, check operational status, unlock the 'sa' user if necessary, and run additional scripts to finalize the system update. Perform a backup before initiating updates.
