Creating or deleting a server

StepsCreating a server

  1. In the Management Console, highlight the Servers folder, right-click, and select Add.

  2. Complete the wizard to create the server:

    • If the name of the server is different than the name of the machine on which it runs, enter the fully-qualified machine name as the server host name. For example, if the name of the server is “myServer” and it runs on a machine called “mach1” in the Sybase domain, enter mach1.sybase.com as the server host name.

    • If you are adding a server to a cluster and running it on the same machine as other servers in the cluster, create new HTTP and IIOP listeners for the server. If all the servers in a cluster run on separate machines, all the servers can use the same listener port numbers.

  3. To connect to the server, create a new connection profile and specify the new server’s IIOP port number—see “Creating a connection profile”.

  4. Start the server. See “Starting the server”.

    The server logs errors and other messages to the logs\<server_name>.log file, where server_name is the name of the server.

StepsDeleting an existing server

  1. Expand the Servers folder, highlight the server to delete, right-click, and select Delete.

  2. Complete the wizard, and select Finish.

    NoteYou cannot delete the server to which the Management Console is connected. At least one server must be defined in your EAServer installation.
