Starting an instance with the Windows Services administration tool

You can start and stop a Replication Agent instance both automatically and manually from the Windows Services administration tool.

1. Log in to Windows using an account with Windows administrator privileges.

2. Go to Windows Services at Start | Settings | Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services.

3. Scroll through the list of available services until you find the listings for your Sybase servers.

   Server names use the format:

   “Sybase Replication Agent inst_name”

   where inst_name is the name of the Replication Agent instance.

4. Right-click on the service name, and choose Start from the context menu.

5. Click the Close button to close the Services window.

You can verify the status of the instance either from Sybase Central or by looking at the Status column of the Windows Services tool.
