Once a cluster is registered in Sybase Control Center, you can authenticate the agent, start the cluster, and authenticate the cluster.
Prerequisites
To start the cluster, the SCC agent must be running on each node and the cluster must be registered and available in the Perspective Resources screen.
Task
After you register and authenticate the agent, you see an option to start the cluster. Optionally, if the cluster is authenticated, you can choose to start the cluster from the Administration Console. Starting the cluster from the Administration Console provides a log trace that shows the start-up status along with any potential warning or error messages.
- From the Perspective Resources view, select the cluster, click the drop-down arrow that appears next to the name, then select Administration Console.
- In the left pane of the Administration Console, select ASE Servers to populate the right pane with a list of servers.
- Select the cluster, click the drop-down arrow that appears next to the cluster name, then select Register Agent.
You see the Server Properties screen.
- In the Agent screen, enter the port number to the agent running the node and click Register. The default port number is 9999; however, this may not be the correct port number for your configuration.
- Enter the user name and password for the user authorized as the agent and click Authenticate.
Once the agent is authenticated, the screen updates with the cluster status and prompts you to start the cluster.
- Click Start Server.
The cluster status changes to Running.
- From the Perspective Resources view, select the cluster, click the drop-down arrow that appears next to the name, then select Authenticate.
- Select the credential type to authenticate the cluster.
- (Optional) If the credential type is ASE Username, enter the user name and password authorized to authenticate the Adaptive Server and click OK.
