Authenticating the Unified Agent

Authenticate the Unified Agent using the Authenticate Agent option in the Adaptive Server Administration Dashboard

Note: While executing this command, you may experience performance degradation if there is a firewall between the Sybase Control server and the monitoring Adaptive Server host machines. Communication with the Unified Agent uses the Java RMI network protocol which requires a network connection to be established between the Sybase Control Center server and Unified Agent. If the firewall prevents these connections from being established, then performance may degrade.

In the Perspective Resources view, right-click the server you want to monitor and select Administer. The Adaptive Server Administration Dashboard displays the administrative options.
Click Authenticate Agent. You see the ASE Agent Authentication window.
Enter the agent user name and password (optional) for the Unified agent.
You must have configured the Unified agent to allow the Sybase Control Center user to authenticate. The Sybase Control Center user must also have the necessary permissions to manage the Adaptive Server using the Unified agent.

Note: The authentication credentials for the Unified Agent are different from those used to authenticate the Adaptive Server resource.
Click OK.
(Optional) Click Edit Agent Authentication to change the username or password, or to clear the authentication.
