Starting and Stopping a Cluster Using sybcluster

Learn how to start and stop a cluster using sybcluster.

  1. If sybcluster is not running, start it. The syntax is:
    sybcluster -U uafadmin -P -C cluster_name -F "node_name[:port_num]
        [,node_name[:port_num]]..."
    For example, to start “mycluster” on “blade1”, “blade2”, and “blade3”, enter:
    sybcluster -U uafadmin -P -C mycluster 
        -F "blade1,blade2,blade3"
  2. Connect to the cluster. For example:
    connect 
  3. Start the cluster:
    start clusters
  4. To stop a cluster enter:
    shutdown cluster
    Adaptive Server waits for all statements and transactions to complete before shutting down the cluster.
