Erick,
Heh, not having the password may be a problem later. You know, if you're just trying to upgrade MaxDB, you don't have to do an uninstall first. You can just run SDBINST, and when it prompts you like this:
existing updatable installation: 0: c:/program files/sapdb/depend 7.5.00.11 1: none please enter updatable installation id: 0
Just enter the ID of your current installation. SDBINST will automatically upgrade for you.
Hope that helps, JLS

Hi john, the first command gives me: C:\Program Files\sdb\7500\pgm>dbmcli db_enum OK VOICESYS C:\PROGRAM FILES\SDB\7500 7.5.0.8 fast offline VOICESYS C:\PROGRAM FILES\SDB\7500 7.5.0.8 quick offline VOICESYS C:\PROGRAM FILES\SDB\7500 7.5.0.8 slow offline
when i do dmcli -d voicesys -u user,pass db_drop the command line hangs forever...maybe my password is incorrect/corrupted. Since i have never used the command line clients, how can i change/check the pass?
thanks, erick

"Database Kernel"
Hi Erick,
This is a normal error, meant to protect you from accidentally making your databases unavailable. You can check this out like this:
# dbmcli db_enum
Then have a look at the database it prints. You can drop those databases with the command:
# dbmcli -d <instance_name> -u <dbmuser>,<dbmpass> db_drop
Be careful though, this will destroy these databases.
Cheers,
JLS

The only reference to VOICESYS in the SERVICES section of my windows 2000 pro is Service name: SAP DBTech-VOICESYS (test) Display Name SAPDB: VOICESYS (omststknl.exe) Path to executable: C:\PROGRAM FILES\SDB\7500\pgm\omststknl.exe
I already did service -d voicesys -R <admin> -r service -d voicesys -R <admin> -r -q service -d voicesys -R <admin> -r -s
