Hi,
Newbie to Sybase, I'm currently trying to boot a Sybase database. Apologies for my lack of knowledge, the company I contract for axed everyone who knew anything about this DB.
I appear to have a problem with core components of the DB goings 'missing'
The database failed (for unknown reasons)
Booting the DB I discovered _DATA_08, was missing. This was not deleted, or moved, it just went! We recovered this & booted the DB.
It since failed again, booting it once more, now _DATA_12 through to _20 are missing.
Is there anything that can cause this from a software level?

Any suggestions or hints would be greatly appreciated!
