Starting the Database Server as an Open Server

If you want to use Sybase IQ as an Open Server, you must ensure that it is started using the TCP/IP protocol.

See SQL Anywhere 11.0.1 > SQL Anywhere Server - Database Administration > Replication > Using SQL Anywhere as an Open Server > Setting up SQL Anywhere as an Open Server > Starting the database server as an Open Server.

Every application using TCP/IP on a machine uses a distinct TCP/IP port, so that network packets are sent to the correct application. The default port for Sybase IQ is port 2638, which is used for shared memory communications. You can specify a different port number:

start_iq -x tcpip{port=2629} -n myserver iqdemo.db
