Configuring in PATROL console

This section provides information about configuring BMC PATROL for Sybase in PATROL console. You must provide configuration information that defines your environment to the PATROL monitoring environment. 

Before you begin configuring each instance you need to configure the JAVA Home at the root level.

From the PATROL Console work area, right-click the Sybase to perform the administering tasks:

1. Access KM commands> KM Administration> Set JAVA Environment to specify the Java Home directory and JAVA Arguments and click Apply.

2. Access KM commands > Administration > DEBUG to turn the debug on or off at root level.

Adding Sybase environment

Perform the following steps to configure the Sybase environment:

1. From the PATROL Console work area, right-click the Sybase application class.
2. Select KM Commands > Sybase Configuration > Add Sybase Environment.
   The Add new Sybase configuration dialog box is displayed.
3. In the Add new Sybase configuration dialog box, provide the following information:
4. Click Apply to save the configuration.

   1. Environment name—To add a new environment, enter a unique display name for the Sybase ASE environment. A container will be created with the environment name. This environment will hold all the Sybase instances. 

      Note

      You should not provide any special characters such as "\ */?":<>" in the environment name field.

   2. Host—Enter the host name or IP number of the system where the Sybase ASE instance is running.
   3. Port—Enter the port number of the Sybase ASE instance.
   4. User—Enter the user name that is used to connect to Sybase ASE. 
   5. Password—Enter the password for the user name. 
   6. From the following list of Sybase software product, select ASE for monitoring the Sybase ASE:
