shared directo-
ry
The shared directory contains components and libraries that are shared by
several other components. In earlier versions, this directory was named
shared-1_0.
• Sybase Central 6 – is a Java-based framework used by the system manage-
ment tools.
• Java Runtime Environment (JRE) – is a runtime Java virtual machine used
to execute Java-based programs, such as Sybase Central. Adaptive Server
includes the JRE. In typical installations, by default, the JRE is fully in-
stalled. In custom installations, if you select a component for installation
that requires the JRE, the JRE is also automatically selected for installation.
It is located in the shared/JRE-6_0 * directory.

monitoring the status and availability of Adaptive Servers. They are installed
into the $SYBASE/SCC-3_2 directory.
Adaptive Server
plug-in
Installed into the $SYBASE/shared/sybasecentral6* directory.
Note: Sybase recommends that you use the Sybase Control Center to monitor
