Upgrading MobiLink

Version 12 MobiLink clients are incompatible with versions of the MobiLink server before 12.0.0.
The version 12 MobiLink server can be used with clients that are version 10 or later. To use version 10 or 11 clients, start the MobiLink server with the -x option. If you need to support earlier clients, you should keep an earlier version of the MobiLink server to support them.
Confirm that none of the documented behavior changes affect your application. If they do, you must update your application. See SQL Anywhere 12 - Changes and Upgrading.

If you are upgrading an existing MobiLink installation, you must upgrade the components in the following order:

Shut down the MobiLink servers.
Upgrade the consolidated database.

See Upgrading your consolidated database.
Upgrade the MobiLink servers.

See Upgrading the MobiLink server.
Start the MobiLink servers.
Upgrade the MobiLink clients.

The version 12 MobiLink server can only be used with clients that are version 10 or later. MobiLink clients prior to version 10 must be upgraded in order to work with version 12 MobiLink server.

For information about SQL Anywhere remote databases, see Upgrading SQL Anywhere MobiLink clients. For information about UltraLite applications, see Upgrading databases created with previous versions of UltraLite.

Before upgrading, check for behavior changes that may affect you and take standard upgrade precautions.
