Registering a Resource

Make Sybase Control Center aware of a resource (for example, a server that can be monitored) and its connection information by registering the resource.

  1. In the Resource Explorer, select Resources > Register.
  2. Specify:
    New resource type information details
    Field Description
    Resource Name* Name of the resource to register. Enter the actual name of the server, including upper and lower case letters. If the name registered in Sybase Control Center does not exactly match the server name, some monitoring functions, including the topology view, do not work.
    Resource Type Select a type:
    • ASE Server, Replication Only (12.5.0.0) – monitor only the RepAgent threads for an Adaptive Server that is older than version 15.0.2.0. Choose this type for an Adaptive Server that is part of a Replication environment.
    • Replication Agent (15.2.0.0) – monitor Replication Agent.
    • Replication Server (15.2.0.0) – monitor Replication Server.
    • ASE Server (15.0.2.0) – monitor Adaptive Server 15.0.2.0 or later. Choose this type for full Adaptive Server monitoring capabilities.
