The IQ Agent must be running in order to do many multiplex operations (such as creating query servers) on Sybase Central. The IQ Agent generally is started whenever you reboot a Windows machine where IQ is installed. If you are planning to administer a multiplex, you may want to verify that the IQ Agent is running. For more about the IQ Agent, see “Specifying the Agent Port”.
Checking the IQ Agent on Windows
Choose Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
Select “Sybase IQ Agent.”
If Status does not say “Started,” right-click the agent and choose Start. If Status says “Started,” click the menu bar and choose Close.
Run the stop_asiq utility with the -agent option:
% stop_asiq -agent
If no running agent is owned by your username, change directory to $ASDIR/bin and run S99Sybase I\IQAgent1260.
