Managing service dependencies

You can add a service or a group to a list of dependencies using Sybase Central.

Prérequis

There are no prerequisites for this task.

Contexte et remarques

In some circumstances you may want to run more than one executable as a service, and these executables may depend on each other. For example, you may want to run a server and a SQL Remote Message Agent to assist in replication. Services must start in the correct order. If a SQL Remote Message Agent service starts before the server has started, it fails because it cannot find the server. You can prevent these problems by using service groups, which you manage from Sybase Central. With Sybase Central you can specify dependencies for a service. For example:

You can ensure that at least one member of each of a list of service groups has started before the current service.
You can ensure that any number of services have started before the current service. For example, you may want to ensure that a particular network server has started before a SQL Remote Message Agent that is to run against that server starts.
