Configuring State Manager as a Service

Set up the State Manager process to run as a service on the Relay Server host.

1. Open a command shell window, and set the current directory to the location of the dbsvc executable.
2. Enter the following at the prompt.
   • IIS host (Windows)

     dbsvc -as -s auto -t rshost -w SUPRelayServer "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server\rshost.exe" -q -qc -f "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server\rs.config" -o "C:\SAP\logs\rs.log"

     Note: The log file path you specify with -o must exist, before you invoke dbsvc.
   • Apache host (Linux)

     dbsvc -y -a apache_user -t rshost -w SUPRelayServer -q -qc -f /apache_install/modules/rs.config -os 100K -ot /tmp/rs.log

   Substitute parameter values shown here to match your configuration.

   This command configures the State Manager process (rshost) as a service.

3. To start the State Manager service:

   • From the Windows Services Control Panel, right-click SQL Anywhere - SUPRelayServer and select Start.

   • From a Linux command shell:

     1. Make sure the State Manager service runs under the same user credentials as the Apache service.
     2. Change the current directory to:
        • IIS host (Windows) C:\Inetpubs\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server
        • Apache host (Linux) /apache_install/modules/
     3. At the command prompt, enter:

        dbsvc -u SUPRelayServer

   • You can stop the State Manager service either from the Windows Services control panel, or by entering the following at a command shell prompt:

     dbsvc -x SUPRelayServer

   • You can uninstall the State Manager service by entering the following at a command shell prompt:

     dbsvc -d SUPRelayServer
