HP Serviceguard Toolkit for SAP Sybase ASE and SAP Sybase Replication Server for Linux User Guide Version A.12.00.00

1 Overview
The HP Serviceguard Toolkit for SAP Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) and SAP Sybase
Replication Server on Linux (Sybase toolkit) allows you to integrate standalone SAP Sybase ASE
database instances with HP Serviceguard cluster environment.
To achieve high availability to Replication Server instances and DR Agent, you can integrate SAP
Sybase Replication Server instance and its associated Disaster Recovery (DR) Agent with HP
Serviceguard cluster environment.
The following are the benefits of the Sybase toolkit:
• Set of shell scripts to start, stop, and monitor the health of the Sybase ASE server, RS, and DR
Agent.
• Provide basic steps to configure a Sybase ASE, Sybase RS, DR Agent instances, and to integrate
it with Serviceguard.
To use the Sybase toolkit, you must be familiar with the installation and configuration of HP
Serviceguard for Linux, SAP Sybase ASE, and SAP Sybase Replication Server.
NOTE: The Sybase toolkit supports only Serviceguard modular style packages.
