Installation and Implementation of Sybase Control Center

Performance may be affected if you do not follow configuration and usage guidelines. For example, you may see UI errors, and collections may fail.

Installation:

The operating systems supported for Sybase Control Center server installation have changed; the following is updated for SCC 3.2.8.

Sybase Control Center Server Requirements
SCC Server Platform	Operating System
x86/32-bit	Windows 7, 8 Windows Server 2008 R2 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 SUSE Linux Enterprise 10, 11 SP1
x86/64-bit	Windows 7, 8 Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, 6 SUSE Linux Enterprise 10, 11 SP1
Solaris SPARC 64-bit	Solaris 10, 11
Solaris-64 (x64)	Solaris 10, 11

For adequate performance, the Sybase Control Center server machine must have at least two 2.4GHz processors and 4GB RAM.

Implementation:

Resources – monitor no more than 150 resources with a single SCC server. To monitor more resources, distribute them over several SCC servers, with each SCC server on a separate machine.
Collection jobs – set up only one collection for each collection type for each managed resource. See Configure > Setting Up Statistics Collection in the online help for your product module.
Note: Some collection jobs are created by default upon resource authentication. In the online help, see:
- Sybase Control Center for Adaptive Server^® Enterprise > Configure > Setting Up Statistics Collection > Adaptive Server Data Collections
- Sybase Control Center for Replication > Configure > Setting Up Statistics Collection > Replication Data Collections
- Sybase Control Center for Data Assurance > Configure > Setting Up Statistics Collection > Data Collections for Replication Server Data Assurance Option
- Sybase Control Center for SAP^® Sybase Event Stream Processor > Configure Sybase Control Center > Setting Up Statistics Collection > Event Stream Processor Data Collections
- Sybase Control Center for SAP Sybase IQ > Configure Sybase Control Center > Setting Up Statistics Collection > SAP Sybase IQ Data Collections
Users – allow no more than 10 users to log in to Sybase Control Center simultaneously.
Repository – do not turn purge off unless you configure purging as part of a scheduled backup. By default, purge is turned on and set to execute daily. In the online help, see the topics on scheduling backups of the repository and configuring repository purging.
