This section describes how to start and stop the Adaptive Server Anywhere database. Unwired Accelerator uses ASA for persistent storage of system data. The security provider—portaldatabase (or PortalDB)—is included with ASA as a default.
Typically Adaptive Server Enterprise is left running.
If you need to stop and start Adaptive Server Enterprise, see the
Adaptive Server Enterprise documentation for instructions
Starting the ASA database (Windows)
From a Command Prompt window, navigate to SYBASE.
Enter startdb,
or double-click the file name in Windows Explorer.
This starts the Adaptive Server Anywhere database. When the database starts, the icon for the Sybase ASA database appears in your task bar.
Shutting down the ASA database (Windows)
From a Command Prompt window, navigate to SYBASE.
Enter stopdb,
or double-click the file name in Windows Explorer.
