Starting Sybase Control Center

Sybase Control Center (SCC) is a Web-based tool for managing and monitoring SAP servers, including SAP Sybase Event Stream Processor servers. SCC includes a server component with management UI and an SCC agent.

Prerequisites
If you installed the SCC server on a separate machine, navigate to that install and start the server. To manage Event Stream Processor, both the SCC agent installed with ESP and the SCC server must be running.
Task

To monitor Event Stream Processor, you typically need to install only one SCC server in your enterprise. To manage Event Stream Processor, install an SCC agent on the same host with each ESP Server. If you install the SCC server and SCC agent together by selecting both options in the installer, you start and stop them with the same commands.

Start the SCC server to allow users to connect to it from their Web browsers. Once connected to SCC, users can access the online help for detailed instructions on managing and monitoring Event Stream Processor.

When starting the SCC server in Windows 2008 and Windows 7, use the Run as administrator setting to launch SCC even if you already have administrative privileges.

In addition to starting the SCC server, configure the SSL certificate, disable default login accounts, and enable incremental backups. These procedures ensure SCC is ready for user access.

  1. (SCC server only) Select Start > All Programs > Accessories, then right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
  2. (Perform this step only if you are starting SCC for the first time) From the command prompt, navigate to your Event Stream Processor base installation directory and run SYBASE.bat.
    This sets the necessary environment variables.
  3. From the command-prompt, navigate to <Install_Dir>\SCC-3_2\bin and run scc.bat to start the SCC server, SCC agent, or both.
    This command starts either the SCC server, the SCC agent, or both if you chose to install both in the same directory. Once the SCC server starts, it begins accepting connections.
    Note: If you encounter errors, view the error log in the <Install_Dir>\SCC-3_2\log directory.
  4. Connect to the Sybase Control Center server. In your Web browser, enter:
    • If SSL is enabled: https://<scc-hostname>:<port>/scc where <scc-hostname> is the name of the machine running SCC. The default port is 8283.
    • If SSL is disabled: http://<scc-hostname>:<port>/scc where <scc-hostname> is the name of the machine running SCC. The default port is 8282.
  5. Log in.
    When logging in to a newly installed Sybase Control Center for which secure authentication has not been configured, use the sccadmin account and the password you specified during installation.

    If you use SCC with Event Stream Processor, leave the SCC server running whenever ESP is running. The easiest way to do this is to run the SCC server as a service that restarts automatically.
