Sybase Control Center provides a single, comprehensive, Web-administration console for real-time performance, status, and availability monitoring of large-scale Sybase enterprise servers. Sybase Control Center combines a modular architecture, a rich client administrative console, agents, common services, and tools for managing and controlling Sybase products. It includes historical monitoring, threshold-based alerts and notifications, alert-based script execution, and intelligent tools for identifying performance and usage trends.
Although the PC-Client CD installation includes the Adaptive Server plug-in for Sybase Central (which contains software for managing Sybase servers), Sybase recommends that you use Sybase Control Center to monitor Adaptive Server, as the Sybase Central plug-in does not support any of the new features introduced in this version of Adaptive Server.
The Adaptive Server installer installs the Sybase Control Center (SCC) remote command and control agent with Adaptive Server, however, does not install the SCC management UI, which manages and monitors activities.
To install the SCC management UI, use the SCC installation CD or DVD, or download it from http://downloads.sybase.com. In a production environment, Sybase recommends that you install the SCC server on a machine other than the one you plan to run Adaptive Server on.
