As an alternative to using the Sybase Central Performance Monitor, you can use the Windows Performance Monitor.

The Windows Performance Monitor offers more performance statistics than the Sybase Central Performance Monitor, especially network communication statistics. It also uses a shared-memory scheme instead of performing queries against the database server, so it does not affect the statistics themselves.

If you run multiple versions of SQL Anywhere simultaneously, it is also possible to run multiple versions of the Performance Monitor simultaneously.

When starting the database server that controls the memory used by the Windows Performance Monitor, you can specify the database server options, and the maximum number of connections or database that the Performance Monitor can monitor. See:

• -ks dbeng12/dbsrv12 server option
• -ksc dbeng12/dbsrv12 server option
• -ksd dbeng12/dbsrv12 server option
