Starting and Stopping SAP Control Center

SAP Control Center (SCC) for SAP ASE is a Web-based tool for monitoring the status and availability of SAP ASE servers. Set the $SYBASE environment variables and start an SCC agent on your SAP ASE server.

Prerequisites

Before starting SAP Control Center, make sure you have installed both:

SCC agent for SAP ASE – a remote command and control agent that runs on a managed server, and which is required to manage SAP ASE tasks within SCC.
SCC Management User Interface for SAP ASE – provides the GUI that allows you to manage and monitor activities in an SAP ASE server using a Web browser.

A "typical" installation includes the SCC agent, but the management UI is available only if you select the "custom" installation option.

Task

There are several ways to run SCC:

From the command line in the foreground
From the command line in the background
Set up a daemon to run it as a service

Use these steps to run SAP Control Center for the first time and to verify the installation. For complete instructions, see Get Started > Launching SAP Control Center > Starting and Stopping SAP Control Center in the SCC online help, as well as Starting and Stopping SAP Control Center in UNIX in the SAP Control Center Installation Guide.

Task

To start SAP Control Center:
1. Before you start the SCC agent for the first time, source either the SYBASE.csh or SYBASE.sh environment script.
2. Start the SCC agent:
```
$SYBASE/SCC-3_3/bin/scc.sh
```
3. Verify that the SCC agent is running. After you run the SCC script, you see the SCC console prompt. At this prompt, enter:
```
scc-console> status
```
  You should see a status message similar to:
```
Agent Home: /remote/perf_archive/mymachine/Install_Testing/157CE_C3/SCC-3_3/instances/solstrs3
Connection URL: service:jmx:rmi:///jndi/rmi://solstrs3:9999/agent
Status: RUNNING
```
To shut SCC down from the console:
```
scc-console> shutdown
```
