Contexte et remarques

Each database server can run more than one database. When you run more than one database at a time, it is recommended that you do so by adding new databases to your existing Windows service, rather than by creating new services.

Task

Run the Service utility (dbsvc) with the -w option.

Résultat

A new Windows service is created.

Exemple

The following command creates a Windows service called myserv where the database server runs as the LocalSystem user.

dbsvc -as -w myserv "C:\Program Files\SQL Anywhere 16\Bin32\dbsrv16.exe"
 -n william -c 8m "c:\temp\sample.db"
