Registering and Authenticating an SAP Control Center Agent

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

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

To perform certain administrative tasks, including starting and stopping an SAP 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 the resource, and select Resource > Administration Console.
  2. In the left pane of the Administration Console, do either:
    • For a simplex resource, select IQ Servers.
    • For a multiplex resource, expand IQ Servers > Multiplex Management, and select Multiplex Servers.
  3. Select the IQ server to be registered from the right pane and either:
    • Click the arrow to the right of the name and select Register Agent, or
    • From the Administration Console menu bar, select Resource > Register Agent
    The Register SCC Agent wizard appears.
  4. Enter the IQ server host name and agent port (the default port is 9999) and click OK.
  5. Select the IQ server resource to be authenticated from the right pane and either:
    • Click the arrow to the right of the name and select Authenticate Agent, or
    • From the Administration Console menu bar, select Resource > Authenticate Agent
    The Authenticate SCC Agent wizard appears.
    Note: The Authenticate Agent option is unavailable if the resource has not been successfully registered.
  6. Depending on your database version, do one of the following:
    • For 15.x - Enter the SAP 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 SAP Control Center agent user (the default is uafadmin) and password (created during the installation process).
