Procedure

Starting an SAP System

Java-only installation

When you start the AS Java you start the database, the available Java instances, the central services instance, and the respective server processes.

       1.      Start the SAP Management Console (SAP MC).

The SAP MC automatically displays the database and the instances installed on the local host.

More information: Starting the SAP Management Console.

       2.      In the navigation pane, open the tree structure and navigate to the system node that you want to start.

Note

If you need to administer remote systems, you have to register them in the SAP MC.

More information: Registering Systems and Instances.

       3.      Select the system node and then, from the context menu, choose Start.

       4.      In the Start SAP system(s) dialog box, choose the preferred options. The system may prompt you for the operating system <SID>adm  administrator credentials. To complete the operation, you must have administration permissions.

Note

When you start the SAP system with the SAP MC under Microsoft Windows, you start the available Java instances, the central services instance, the respective server processes, and the database. However, when you start the SAP system under other operating systems, the database does not start automatically. For information how to start the database, refer to the respective database documentation.

Similarly, you can start all SAP systems and individual instances, registered in the SAP MC.
