Authenticating the SCC Agent

For Adaptive Server versions 15.7 ESD1 and later. Authenticate the SCC Agent using the Authenticate Agent option in the Adaptive Server Administration Console.

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

  1. In the Perspective Resources view, select a resource, click the drop-down arrow that appears next to the name, and select Administration Console.
  2. Click ASE Servers.
    You see a list of monitored servers.
  3. Select the server you want to manage and click the drop-down arrow that appears next to the name.
  4. Click Authenticate Agent.
    You see the Server Properties screen.
  5. Enter the agent user name and password for the SCC Agent.

    You must have configured the SCC 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 SCC agent.

    Note: The authentication credentials for the SCC agent are different from those used to authenticate the Adaptive Server resource.
  6. (Optional) Click Clear Authentication.
