On Windows NT, use the following methods to determine if Monitor Server is running:
Check the status on the Windows NT Control Panel Services window.
Check the status using isql. To use this method, run isql with the following command:
isql -Uusername -Ppassword -SmonitorServerName
where:
username is the name specified with the -U parameter when starting the Monitor Server
password is that user’s password
monitorServerName is the Monitor Server you are verifying
Then execute:
1> sms_status server 2> go
If Monitor Server is running, you should see the following output:
Server Name ---------------------------------- AdaptiveServerName
where AdaptiveServerName is the name of the Adaptive Server being monitored.
