The Unified Agent enables the distributed management of the cluster. Set the $SYBASE environment variables and start a Unified Agent on each node that will host instances in the cluster.
If another application is already using port 9999 see step 3.
From the $SYBASE directory of each instance:
Source the SYBASE environment script.
Start the Unified Agent:
$SYBASE_UA/bin/uafstartup.sh &
The Unified Agent creates $SYBASE_UA/nodes/<node_name>/log/agent.log,
and sends agent output to that file.
To optionally specifying the UAF port number where port_number = any available network port
$SYBASE_UA/bin/uafstartup.sh -port port_number
If you use this option you must use the same port number for all agents.
Shutting down the Unified Agent
To shutdown a UAF agent running on a specific port number, enter the following:
$SYBASE_UA/bin/uafshutdown.sh -port port_number
For example, to shutdown a UAF agent that is started on port number 12345:
$SYBASE_UA/bin/uafshutdown.sh -port 12345
On HP – do not cancel
your Unified Agent process by using Ctrl-C to terminate
a parent Java process on a running server, as this also kills any Adaptive
Server and other auxilary server instances that the agent started.
