Sybase ASE for Windows

LoganBurt — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 07:20:53 GMT

We currently have a few servers that use Sybase ASE 12.5 for Windows. These servers have luns mapped to drives for storing the databases. Is there any way to use snapmirror with these so that we would get snapshots that are in a consistent state? These servers never take the databases offline. I saw documentation for doing this with Sybase for Unix, but I have found nothing for Sybase for Windows. Thank you very much for your help with this.

Please refer to the following documents

I have not tested this on Windows but the Sybase, Snapshot, SnapMirror part should be similar to Unix. Where as you need to verify that the Secondary data server uses the same ASE page size, default character set and default sort order.
