Registering and Authenticating a Sybase Control Center Agent

Register and authenticate the Sybase Control Center agent for a managed server.

The Sybase Control Center agent runs on a managed server and enables Sybase Control Center to manage it. The SCC agent is installed automatically as part of the Sybase server.

To perform certain administrative tasks, including starting and stopping a Sybase IQ server, syncing the server, and adding secondary nodes, you must register and authenticate the server’s SCC agent.

  1. In the Perspective Resources view, select a resource.
  2. From the application menu bar, select View > Open > Administration Console.
  3. In the left pane of the Administration Console, select either:
    • IQ Servers
    • IQ Servers > Multiplex Management > Multiplex Servers
  4. Select Resource > Register Agent.
  5. Enter the IQ server host name and agent port (the default port is 9999) and click OK.
  6. In the Administration Console, select the same IQ server or multiplex server and select Resource > Authenticate Agent.
  7. Depending on your database version, do one of the following:
    • For 15.x - Enter the Sybase Control Center agent user (the default is uafadmin) and password (by default, there is no password—leave the field blank).
    • For 16.0 - Enter the Sybase Control Center agent user (the default is uafadmin) and password (created during the installation process).

For instructions on changing the password for the SCC agent’s default uafadmin account, see the topic on setting passwords in the Sybase Control Center Installation Guide.
