Sybase Central and Interactive SQL are the main tools for multiplex administration. For SQL syntax, see Appendix A, “Multiplex Reference.” For Sybase Central, see Managing servers (Sybase Central). You can also generate administrative scripts with Sybase Central, as described in “Using administrative shell scripts”.
Managing servers (Sybase
Central)
Right-click the desired server.
Select the desired operation from the menu.
You can perform the following operations from the popup menus:
Disconnect or drop the selected server.
View IQ Agent properties (version, port number, timeout setting) or Agent log.
Rename, stop, or synchronize the selected server. If the server is a coordinator, ping the host, rename, or stop the server.
Generate Administrative Scripts

Wizards on the coordinator (Start, Stop, and Synchronize)
