Ulandon -
It's my understanding that there's two kinds of backup for Sybase -
1) DUMP DATABASE [and DUMP TRAN]
2) QUIESCE DATABASE [or ASE shutdown] with direct device copy.
Given the references in the SnapCreator Sybase plug in configuration documentation to TRAN dump directory, format, and compression, it looks like SnapCreator does a DUMP DATABASE backup, and does not do a QUIESCE DATABASE backup.
See also the SnapCreator Sybase plug in documentation: https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP12395422/html/frameset.html
I hope this response has been helpful to you.
