ASE 15 Upgrade Checklist for Upgrading from ASE 12.x Sybase ASE 15 _________________________________________________________________________________________________ NEW LICENSING CONSIDERTATIONS FOR ASE 15 Sybase uses a utility called SySAM (Sybase Software Assets Manager) to install, maintain and verify Sybase product licenses. In ASE 15, Sybase introduced a new version of this utility called SySAM2. This version significantly changes the way you install and upgrade ASE software. SYSAM2 LICENSING CHANGES FOR ASE 15 SySAM2 introduces a number of changes to the way Sybase monitors and manages its software licenses. These include the following: o o o o o o o o o New asset management and reporting tools. A single installation method for all Adaptive Server editions. SySAM usage is no longer optional. SySAM configuration options are provided. SySAM licenses are no longer shipped along with order fulfillment. You must obtain license certificates from the Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC). SySAM license keys include information about the support plan you purchased. You must update these licenses whenever you renew your support plan. Licensing policies are strictly and consistently enforced. ASE will function normally under grace periods if it is not able to obtain a license. This grace period is typically 30 days. ASE features and/or the server itself may shut down at the end of the grace period if the licensing issues are not resolved. You can receive real-time e-mail notifications about licensing events. o Licenses issued from SPDC include information about the host machine where the licenses will be deployed. These licenses cannot be used on another machine without being reissued from SPDC. SYSAM IS NOW REQUIRED FOR ALL LICENSES One of the biggest changes in SySAM2 is the mandatory use of SySAM to manage ALL Sybase software licenses. Previously, the use of SySAM was optional for the ASE “Core” licenses. SySAM was only required for optional licenses that extended ASE’s core functionality. In version 15, this has changed. SySAM license registration is now required for ALL licenses. Therefore, it is important that you plan your SySAM deployment before installing ASE 15. Therefore, in order to license your ASE 15 server, you must do the following: 1. Identify the components and options to install or upgrade. 2. Choose a SySAM license model. 3. Obtain (download) a license. 4. Install/deploy the license. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ASE 15 Upgrade Checklist for ASE 12.X v3.0 Page 27 of 97 Last Update: May, 2012
ASE 15 Upgrade Checklist for Upgrading from ASE 12.x Sybase ASE 15 _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Note: o o SySAM 2 licenses are generated at the secure Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC) Web site When you generate licenses at the Sybase Product Download Center (SPDC), you must specify the host ID of the machine where the licenses will be deployed. For more details on how to license ASE 15, please see the Pre-Upgrade Planning and Pre-Upgrade steps (Steps 1.5 and 2.2) later in this document. SYSAM SUB-CAPACITY LICENSING Sub-capacity licensing refers to licensing a Sybase product on a subset of the CPUs available on a physical machine. As of ASE 15.5, Sybase offers sub-capacity licensing options for ASE Enterprise. Sub-capacity Licensing is not supported in the ASE 15.5 Cluster Edition. A sub-capacity licensing agreement with Sybase must be in-place before you can enable subcapacity licensing. As with other Sybase licenses, this license must be obtained through Sybase sales. Sub-capacity licenses are restricted to specific hardware and software platforms. For more information on sub-capacity eligible platforms, see the latest Release Bulletins. For example, for ASE 15.7 on Linux, see the Adaptive Server Enterprise 15.7 > Release Bulletin Adaptive Server Enterprise 15.7 for Linux > Installation and Upgrade > Special Licensing Instructions at http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/topic/com.sybase.infocenter.help.ase.15.7/title.htm For more details on using sub-capacity licensing, please see the following: o o For information on how to configure sub-capacity license using the sysamcap utility, see the SySAM Documentation > Users Guide > SySAM Sub-capacity Licensing at http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc00530.0200/doc/html/jon 1265323502828.html For more details on sub-capacity licenses and using SySam in general, see the following: • The SySAM Users Guide at: http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc00530.0200/doc/ html/title.html • The SySAM Quick Start Guide at http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc70043.0200/ doc/html/title.html ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ASE 15 Upgrade Checklist for ASE 12.X v3.0 Page 28 of 97 Last Update: May, 2012
