Changing a Memory Option on the Command Line

Before you start SAP Control Center from the command line, you can issue a command to change the value of a memory option temporarily.

Changes made using this method last only as long as the current login session. This method is useful for testing new option values.

  1. If SAP Control Center is running, shut it down.
  2. Set the environment variable. Specify a size in megabytes but do not indicate the units in the command.

    Windows example:

    > set SCC_MEM_MAX=512

    UNIX example:

    bash$ export SCC_MEM_MAX=512
  3. Use the scc command to start SAP Control Center.
