SAP Sybase

Source and Destination Databases

Before you begin

Before you begin, gather this connection information:

  • Name of the server you want to connect to, port number, and if you use single sign-on, service name

  • The database name

  • Optionally, the name of the schema that you want to connect to

  • User name and password

  • Are you connecting to an SSL server?

Connect and set up the workspace

Launch Syntho and select Connect to a database, or Create workspace. Then select SAP Sybase from Type under The connection details. For a complete list of data connections, click Type under The connection details. Then do the following:

  1. Enter the name of the server that hosts the database that you want to connect to.

  2. Enter the database name to connect to the contained database.

  3. Enter the port number.

  4. Enter your user name and password.

    Select the Require SSL check box when connecting to an SSL server.

  5. Select Create Workspace. If Syntho can't make the connection, verify that your credentials are correct. If you still can't connect, your computer is having trouble locating the server. Contact your network administrator or database administrator.

Limitations

Contact your Syntho contact person to discuss possible limitations regarding this connector.

*Some data types are not actively supported; however, certain generators such as AI synthesize, mask, mockers, or calculated columns may still show 'True' for these fields. This means the generators can be applied, even though the types are not actively supported. Duplication is fully supported for these data types.
