I will be migrating Sybase Databases (and Centura) to MS SQL Server Databases. While I have administered MS SQL Server for many years, I have never administrated or even saw a Sybase database. My question, can anyone suggest any books to get me up to speed on Sybase, so I can transfer all databases, including tables, procs, etc... to MS Sql Server?

We plan to convert our current OLTP intensive application from Sybase on NT to SQL 2000.
Which one is the winner in terms of performance. I was told that SQL Server has less tools
to tune the database especially for OLTP intensive database.
Have you done any test comparing the performance between Sybase and SQL server?
What is your opinion on this? Do you know any good third party tools to tune SQL 2000?
Thanks!
I've installed Sybase client 12.0 and have created the DSN (it is successful, connection is established)
but when I run this ActiveX Script from DTS Package it give me error Data Source Name not found and no default driver specified
Dim RS
Dim oConn
Set oConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
msgbox "set oConn"
Set RS = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
msgbox "RS"
(I've tried both open statement in both it gives me same error)
oConn.Open = "Driver={Sybase ASE ODBC Drivers};Srvr=Server1;Uid=sa;Pwd=password"
oConn.Open="DSN=Test;Uid=sa;Pwd=password"
msgbox "open"
Can anyone guide me?

Hi all,
I have a module in power builder with Sybase database as its backend. The other modules related to the same application are running on Delphi with SQL server as backend.
My requirement is to sync between the Sybase database and SQL server (2000) in order to update the SQL server with all the transactions ( online ) done in the Sybase database.
Thanks in advance ,

I have been having tremendous trouble getting OLEDB connections to Sybase that I use within SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 to work properly - they always seem to revert to the older, third party Sybase drivers if they are installed on the machine and just generally cause problems - I have given up on using them within an SSIS package all together and gone down another route.
Can anyone confirm to me whether or not this is because the version 15 native drivers that Sybase provide are not supported by SQL Server, please?
Thank you
People, help me with this? Already broke my brain.
I have some data on Sybase 9.0.2.3198,
i'm tryin to render report with MSSQL ReportingServices 2000 Eval SP2.

after deployment I'm tryin to render it, RS gives me an error:
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Get Online Help
Query execution failed for data set 'Data'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) Get Online Help
Column '@start_date' not found
I tried connect through ODBC and OLEDB both - same result.
ps I'm gonna kill somebody real soon.

How do I tap advanced functionality like #temptable and @var from openquery? There is a linked server from SQL Server 2000 to Sybase 12 using Sybase.ASEOLEDBProvider.
Executing an openquery statement from MS SQL will retrieve Sybase data; however, I have no advanced functionality available. When I try to use temporary #tables or declare @vars it returns this error...
Server: Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 1, Could not process object '…OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: OLE DB provider unable to process object, since the object has no columnsProviderName='Sybase.ASEOLEDBProvider', Query=…
Linked Server configuration:

Does anyone have a suggestion or alternative for this functionality? Thank you very much for your input.

Can anyone tell me if a Sybase database will run on SQL 2000?
Can this be done?

Hi Everyone -
I have a master database (sybase) that is in place as a company
legacy server -
I am setting up a web server to act as an intranet and data entry
terminal system.
I want to ultimately remove sybase from the picture, but
for now, i need to grab information from the sybase server
and populate the MSSQL database with the values from the
sybase database.
So my question is this -
Is there a way to setup a "auto polling" or synching between the MSSQL
and the sybase system.
If there isn't then i will need to do a DTS job to grab the values from
the sybase ODBC connection, and populate my database that way -
but there must be another way to accomplish this task.
thanks
take care
tony
Hi all,
A question that may have been asked on many occasions, but what can be advised as the best way to migrate a Sybase 11.x DB to SQL 7.0, (without using BCP). Does DTS support such migrations and if so, where in DTS can this be done? I'd appreciate any basic help here to get me started on this exercise. MAny thanks
Hello,
We have Trading Applications (Equities & Portfolio written on C++) on MS SQL Server 2000. Now the management is deciding to move it on Sybase 12.5. We currently don't have any issues on any matter, but because everyone is SYbase fan here, thinks applications are critical and we need to move to Sybase. Can anyone who has worked on both knows the major pros & cons of both the system. Actually I wanted these systems to be on MS SQL Server. I need solid reasons except being cheaper than Sybase to show why we should use MS SQL Server
If anyone can share their experiences, it would be really great.
Thanks

Good day.I have dts running every 10 minutes in a server of slqserver 2000 who is in a country and that it sends data to another country which has a data base sybase12.5.The problem is when by reasons for the WAN the connection fails from a country to another one the dts or job fails executing its processes and I must soon give click to stop and start so that it continues. That I can do so that when the connection is lost and i need to dts reconected automatically and is continued its processing?

If I need to have SQL Server be able to query a Sybase database on another machine (Adaptive Server anywhere 7.0.2 with an ODBC connection), what is the simplest, least expensive way to do this ?
Thanks
Coming from Sybase env. I would like to know the equivalent of sp_showplan. What it does is, it shows the showplan for the query being run by spid, which is passed as a parameter to sp_showplan.
Thanks for your help.

Hi there
I want to pull data out of sysbase database.
Could you tell me which connection should I use to connect to sybase database?
Rahul Kumar
Hi,
I am assuming someone has had success connecting to Sybase from SSIS. I am having trouble. And I freely admit naivety when it comes to something like this. :-)
I installed dbConnector 6.01 which has a Sybase connector as a part of the package. I then tried to create a connection manager for Sybase using OleDb, but it was not an option in the list of OleDb connections. So, am I correct in assuming that I need to use ODBC? If so, is there an OleDb Sybase driver that can be used with SSIS?
Any help in using SSIS to connect to Sybase would be appreciated.
Thanks,

It's all well and good that Microsoft has finally entered the well-established mobile database market (the market that iAnywhere Solution's SQL Anywhere product current *owns* by a wide margin). However, it should be noted that "SQL Everywhere" is a Sybase trademark. For confirmation of this fact, see http://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.help.mro12.6.mro126ig/html/mro126ig/legal.htm
For confirmation of the fact that SQL Anywhere owns the mobile database market, note that it is the database of choice for the 500,000 mobile devices that will be used in the 2010 US Census; see http://www.internetadsales.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=7347
