Installation guide

Procedure

1. Set your terminal to display 8-bit characters.

2. Verify that the EUC-JIS, Shift-JIS, or the UTF-8 character set is installed either as the SAP ASE default

character set or as an additional character set.

3. Determine the type (raw partition, logical volume, operating system file, and so on) and location of the device

where you will be storing the jpubs database. You will need to provide this information later.

4. Execute the installjpubs script, using the -J flag to ensure that the database is installed with the correct

character set:

isql -U<sa> -P<password> -S<servername> -Jeucjis \

-i $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/scripts/eucjis/installjpubs

isql -U<sa> -P<password> -S<servername> -Jeucjis \

-i %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\scripts\eucjis\installjpubs

or:

isql -U<sa> -P<password> -S<servername> -Jsjis \

-i $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/scripts/sjis/installjpubs

isql -U<sa> -P<password> -S<servername> -Jsjis \

-i %SYBASE%\%SYBASE_ASE%\scripts\sjis\installjpubs

For more information on the -J option in isql, see the Utility Guide.

9.5.5 Maintaining Sample Databases

The sample databases contain a guest user option that allows authorized users to access the database. Guest

users have a wide range of privileges, including permissions to select, insert, update, and delete user tables.

Context

We recommend that you remove the guest user option from user databases in production systems. For more

information about the guest user and a list of guest permissions, see the System Administration Guide.

Procedure

● If possible, and if space allows, give each new user a clean copy of the sample databases so that he or she is

not confused by other users’ changes.

● If space is a problem, instruct users to issue the begin transaction command before updating a sample

database.
