Sybase SQL - Truncation error occurred. Command has been aborted and find CACHE QUALITY
Just in case if any one wants to set up for CACHE QUALITY for Sybase ASE 15 and up, below script will help:

Changes for the script to work fast without overhead of querying MDA tables and the truncation issue is resolved by switching to int datatype.: 


The where clause now makes the script work when Sybase ASE is under heavy loads.
where CacheID = 0
The last change is just a logic change for when physical reads = 0, this way we save the logical reads. then @logical_read2 - @logical_read1
