Download the installer and install an
SAP Control Center server in GUI or console mode. The installer creates
an SCC directory and installs the selected components into that directory.
Prerequisites
- Perform the preinstallation tasks.
-
If you are upgrading,
SAP recommends that you shut down the earlier
version of SAP Control Center before installing the new version.
When the installer configures HTTP, HTTPS, and RMI ports, it checks to see if the
port numbers provided are in use. If the earlier version of
SCC is running when you install the new version,
you cannot use the same ports in both versions. Configure different ports only if
you plan to run the two versions of SCC
simultaneously, which is not recommended.
Task
The SAP Control Center installer runs in GUI mode
(as graphic dialogs) or in text-based console mode in both Windows and UNIX (Linux and Solaris) operating systems.
- If you received SAP Control Center along
with a product managed by SCC
(Adaptive Server, Data Assurance, replication products,
SAP Sybase Event Stream Processor, or
SAP Sybase IQ), copy the installer
from the media to the machine on which you plan to install it.
You can
download
SAP Control Center
from
the
Web.
If you still have a support contract with Sybase, go to
http://downloads.sybase.com
and download the installer for a product you manage with SCC. (SCC is
included in managed product installers).
If
you have a support contract with
SAP:
- Go to the SAP Software Download Center at http://service.sap.com/swdc.
- Download the SAP Download Manager.
- Return to the Download Center and select Installations and
Upgrades.
- In the A-Z index, select
a
product you manage with SCC. (SCC is included in managed product
installers.).
- Download
the installer for the managed product and use it to install
SCC.
- If necessary, unzip or untar the installer package.
- (Windows) If you
are installing in any version of Windows, log in using an account with
administrative privileges.
- (Windows)If you are installing 32-bit SCC on 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8,
Windows 2008, or Windows Server 2012, set compatibility mode for the installer
to Windows XP.
Tip: To avoid these extra steps, use the 64-bit Windows
installer.
- Right-click setup.exe or setupConsole.exe.
- Select
Properties.
- On the Compatibility tab, select Windows XP
compatibility mode.
- Click OK.
-
(Windows) If you are
installing in Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 2008, or Windows Server 2012,
set the Run as Administrator option
on the installer. You must do this even if you already have administrative
privileges.
- Right-click setup.exe or setupConsole.exe.
- Select Run as
Administrator.
- (UNIX) If you are installing
SCC in GUI mode on a UNIX operating system,
make sure the $DISPLAY environment variable is set to the machine where you want
to view the installer.
If you do not set this variable correctly, you see the
installer in text-based console mode.
- Launch the installer:
| Operating System |
GUI Mode |
Console Mode |
|---|
| Windows |
Open setup.exe
|
Execute
setupConsole.exe -i console
|
| UNIX |
Execute setup.bin
|
Execute setup.bin -i console
|
Note: If you have trouble starting the installer, make sure you
have the required operating system patches for the
SAP
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 7.1.
- Select the type of software license for
SAP Control Center. You need not obtain a license if you
choose to install a licensed copy.
- Select the appropriate region, read the license terms, and
select I agree to the terms of the Sybase license
for the install location specified.
- Select the directory in which to install
SCC.
If you
have an existing sybase directory, the installation
location defaults to that. If you do not, the default
directory
is:
- Windows – C:\sap
- UNIX – /opt/sap
- If the warning message about installing into an existing
directory appears, click Next.
- Select the type of installation:
-
Full – installs the SCC server
core functionality and all available product modules.
-
Custom – allows you to select
the SCC product modules to install. SCC core functionality is always
installed.
Note: For upgrades:
If you used the earlier
version of SAP Control Center to manage and
monitor more than one type of resource (Adaptive Server, Data Assurance,
SAP Sybase Event Stream Processor,
SAP Sybase IQ, Replication Server, Replication
Agent, Mirror Replication Agent), install the same set of product module plug-ins
with the new version of SCC.
Download installers for the other managed products, which include SCC
product module plug-ins, as directed in step
1.
- On the Preinstallation Summary screen, verify the selected
installation features and confirm there is enough disk space available to
complete the installation. To start the installation, click Install.
- On the Configure
HTTP
Ports screen, make sure the HTTP and HTTPS ports specified do
not conflict with any ports used by other applications and services on this
machine. If you enter your own port numbers rather than accepting the defaults,
make a note of them—you will need the port numbers to connect a browser to
SCC.
If you are installing an upgrade, the HTTP and HTTPS port
numbers cannot be the same as the port numbers used for the older version of SCC
unless you will never run the older and newer versions at the same time.
- Make sure the RMI port specified on the Configure RMI Port
screen does not conflict with any ports used by other applications and services
on this machine.
- On the Configure Administration
Logins
screen, set the password for the SCC
administration login account, sccadmin.
You can change the name of the
account as well.
Your password must be at least six characters long.
- On the Configure
Repository
Password screen, enter a password for the dba account in the
SCC repository’s SQL Anywhere
database.
Your password must be at least six characters long.
- On the Review Configuration Summary screen, verify that the
configuration is correct.
To change the configuration settings, click Previous.
- On the Enable SCC Shared Disk screen, click Yes to enable shared-disk mode if you plan to
run multiple SCC servers
or agents from this installation. If you select Yes, specify a name for
the first SCC instance
(an SCC agent) on the next screen.
The installer may take a few minutes to create and set
up the instance.
- (Windows) On the Configure a Windows Service screen, select
Yes to configure
SCC as a Windows service.
SAP recommends that you
configure a service in a production environment. If you select No, you must start
SCC manually.
- To start SCC when the
installation is completed, select Yes on
the Start SAP Control Center screen.
SCC may take a few
minutes to start.
- Review the results on the Installation Completed screen and
click Done.
