console, agents, common services, and tools for managing and controlling Sybase products. It
includes historical monitoring, threshold-based alerts and notifications, alert-based script
execution, and intelligent tools for identifying performance and usage trends.
Although the PC-Client CD installation includes the Adaptive Server plug-in for Sybase
Central (which contains software for managing Sybase servers), Sybase recommends that you
use Sybase Control Center to monitor Adaptive Server, as the Sybase Central plug-in does not
support any of the new features introduced in this version of Adaptive Server.
The Adaptive Server installer installs the Sybase Control Center (SCC) remote command and
control agent with Adaptive Server, however, does not install the SCC management UI, which
manages and monitors activities.
To install the SCC management UI, use the SCC installation CD or DVD, or download it from
http://downloads.sybase.com . In a production environment, Sybase recommends that you
install the SCC server on a machine other than the one you plan to run Adaptive Server on.
