Problem Note 9796: Sybase Open Client 12.5 will not connect with Sybase 11.1 image on AIX
If you attempt to connect to Sybase using Open Client 12.5,
the existing image, syr6x111, will give various errors.
A Technical Support hot fix for SAS 8.2 (TS2M0) for this
issue is available at:
http://www.sas.com/techsup/download/hotfix/82_sbcs_prod_list.html#009796
Once the hot fix has been applied, a link to the correct version of
sassyb must be created as follows:
Assuming !SASROOT is /usr/lib/sas8, execute the following commands:
for Open Client 11.1.0 and Open Client 11.1.1:
> cd /usr/lib/sas8/hotfix/sasexe
> mv sassyb sassyb.bak
> ln -s syr6x111 sassyb
for Open Client 12.5:
> cd /usr/lib/sas8/hotfix/sasexe
> mv sassyb sassyb.bak
> ln -s syr6x125 sassyb
