Starting, Stopping, and Pausing Servers Manually

Use the Control Panel to manually stop, start, and pause Adaptive Server.

  1. Log in to Windows using an account with Windows administrator privileges.
  2. Choose 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 this format:

    Sybase typeServer_servername_suffix

    where servername is the name of the Adaptive Server and type and _suffix represent the server type:
    • SQL – Adaptive Server
    • BCK and _BS – Backup Server
    • XP and _XP – XP Server
  4. Select the service name, then click Start, Stop, or Pause to confirm the choice.
  5. Click Close.

You can verify the status of the server either by using Sybase Central or by examining the status column in the Services applet.
