Starting the IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor Engine

The IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor engine must be running for users and administrators to have access to the console and manage servers. On Microsoft Windows operating systems, the engine is set at installation to start automatically. This setting can be changed so the engine starts manually. The engine can also be set to start automatically on UNIX operating systems.

Warning: On the UNIX, Linux®, or AIX® operating system, if you want to start IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor engine with a PuTTY session, do not enable X11 forwarding for the SSH connection. Otherwise, when the PuTTY session is closed, the engine port stops and disappears.
