Starting Multiplex Servers with Sybase Central

To start IQ multiplex servers in scripts, you may use command line parameters.

Use Sybase Central to start multiplex servers interactively.

Log in using an account with DBA privileges and start Sybase Central as appropriate for your platform.
In the left pane of Sybase Central, select Sybase IQ 15.
Select Tools > Sybase IQ 15 > Start Server.

By default, the wizard starts a single server. To start all servers, select the “All servers in multiplex” option button.
Follow the instructions in the wizard.

When starting all of the servers in a multiplex, supply information for the coordinator. Always change the default port number for each server to a different number that is not in use.

Note:

If you checked “Generate Admin Scripts” when creating the multiplex server in Sybase Central, start_server and sync_server scripts are created. You can run these scripts from the command line in place of start_iq and dbbackup, respectively.
