Changing the sort order/charset In ASE

For changing the sort order/charset In ASE

There are two options
1>> By running the sqlloc utility for that I have given the steps below :
1.Shutdown the ASE data and backup server
2.make sqlloc.rs file in /opt/sybase/ASE-1*/init/sample*/sqlloc.rs
in that sqlloc.rs put the below values

$ cat sqlloc.rs
sybinit.release_directory: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.server_name: ASE_BIAPPS
sqlsrv.sa_login: sa
sqlsrv.sa_password:
sqlsrv.default_language: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.language_install_list: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.language_remove_list: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.default_characterset: utf8
sqlsrv.characterset_install_list: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.characterset_remove_list: USE_DEFAULT
sqlsrv.sort_order: bin_utf8

# An example sqlloc resource file...
# sybinit.release_directory: USE_DEFAULT
# sqlsrv.server_name: PUT_YOUR_SERVER_NAME_HERE
# sqlsrv.sa_login: sa
# sqlsrv.sa_password:
# sqlsrv.default_language: french
# sqlsrv.language_install_list: spanish,german
# sqlsrv.language_remove_list: USE_DEFAULT
# sqlsrv.default_characterset: cp437
# sqlsrv.characterset_install_list: mac,cp850
# sqlsrv.characterset_remove_list: USE_DEFAULT
# sqlsrv.sort_order: dictionary

in above file we have change the charset by roman-8 to UTF8

3 run the sqlloc.rs
with the command
srvbuildres -S(servername) -U(username) -P(password) -r sqlloc.rs

Result: Sortorder/charset has been changed.
4.resart the ASE data server it will show you changes in sort order......
=================================================================
Option 2:
2.>By using the sp_configure Command
Use the following command to change the sort order
1> sp_configure "default sortorder id", sort_order_ID
2> go
Result : Sortorder/charset has been changed.
==========================================================================
The main Thing is Options Second is not effective so please change
sortorder by sqlloc utility...

Amol P Ingle

    3 run the sqlloc.rs

Interesting Notes on ASE

Some hidden things about ASE Different States of SLEEP When all processes are shown as SLEEPING by sp_who except the one, which issued the sp_who command, how can a user tell the difference between hangings versus running processes? Definitions In pre-4.9.2 SQL Servers, the output of sp_who could be difficult to interpret. Processes showed only one type of SLEEP status, "sleeping". In System 10, and 4.9.2 Rollup 2115 and above, sp_who shows four types of sleep along with the other possible statuses: Value Meaning Infected The server erred with a stack trace, and the process got an error that would normally kill it. The process is infected instead of killed. Background This process is in the background recv sleep The process is waiting for input from the client Send sleep The process is waiting for a write to the client to complete alarm sleep The process is waiting for an alarm (usually means the process is waiting for a wait for command to complete). Lock sleep The process i...
