This post describes how to generate a temporary “sa” password in case the the existing password is lost or unknown. First of all the ASE needs to be shutdown, since you don’t have the “sa” password you need to shutdown ASE by killing the dataserver. kill -9 <PID of the dataserver> Now go to the…

If you try to bring the DB online following error message is received:- CT-LIBRARY error: ct_send(): network packet layer: internal Client Library error: State error: trying to write when connection is expecting a read.

The process requires that the database being dumped is in a quiescent state, i.e. there are no “open”…
We can use the “headeronly” qualifier when reading a dumpfile to extract useful information which we can use to work out what is needed to setup a new database to load the given dump file. Using following command to read the dumpfile:- This would generate a output something like:- From the output we can get…
If you’re loading a database from another O/S, not only does the dump file need to be created in a quiesced state, but after the load we need to issue the sp_post_xpload command to rebuild any corrupted indexes that maybe present. Start by loading the database as usual:- load database <DB Name> from “compress::<Dumpfile_Path_and_Filename>”go You’ll…
The directio parameter allows you to configure Adaptive Server to transfer data directly to disk, bypassing the operating system buffer cache. directio performs IO in the same manner as raw devices and provides the same performance benefit as raw devices, but has the ease of use and manageability of file system devices. You cannot set…
