hi,

the CM states the following:
"On UNIX and Linux, BMC has found the following clients (supplied from the vendor) to operate properly
with AR System
ยท Sybase : 64-bit Sybase 12.5.3 database client (a.k.a. OpenClient 12.5.1.x)"

This is the client I mean.
Of course, I understood the Remedy clients are Windows based only.

To draw you a simple picture of what I meant:
you have a Sybase database somewhere. You install the Remedy 7.5 on one box. This box is then the client to the server. From that client you need to use something compatible/able/capable of talking to the database. This is the case for every RDBMS which works in a client-server environment.

So could you possibly check with your teams and give me an appropriate answer to my question ?
Many thanks in advance
Serouche

Sybase is not supported on Linux.  It is supported on the following (as per the 
matrix):
Platform

Minimum Operating System version

Sybase ASE 12.5.3
Solaris 9, IBM AIX 5L 5.3, HP-UX 11iv2

Note that these represent minimum OS and DB versions that are supported. Not sure what you meant about the "client", but clients (i.e. Dev Studio and Remedy User) are only supported on Windows based platforms:
Minimum Operating System Version

AR System Clients

Windows Vista (32-bit only), XP (32 bit only)

AR System User Tool

AR System Developer Studio

Windows 2003  (32 or x64)

AR System Developer Studio

** many thanks for this answer Ian.
I now got the Matrix.
Something which is unclear: is Sybase on Linux supported?
My understanding is that the answer for the client part is : Yes.
But I don't get the point for the server side.
Would anybody have more infos on this point?
Many thanks in advance

        Serouche,

        David Easter said on Friday (take a look in the ARSlist Archive):

                Because of internal processes, different deliverables of the 
release come out at different times of the day (or days).  So the EPD is up, 
but the documentation section in Support Central has not yet been activated.  
There is a link from EPD to the individual documentation, however.  The 
compatibility page update is also lagging a little.  Everything should be 
available through normal channels by end of day Monday if things continue to go 
well.

        Hope this helps,

        Ian
