Correction: Same document, Appendix B includes 3 notes which MAY apply based on your OS. sapcontrol is part of the sap kernel supplied with new enough 7xx kernels. On my OS (AIX) there was a setuid root to set not included in the normal setroot.sh. As of certain patch levels environment/profile variables exist which help secure who gets acccess to this service which includes start/stop functionality. I think this ties into downtime management...
You can use the Multiple Software Lifecycle Manager Configuration Assistant (IMG activity) to determine if you've got it right.
Click on SLM configuration icon and then the execute icon (which says Check the Configuration if you over over it). sapcontrol check is part of the third option Check non-connection related configurations.
Also, as to my question re optional ports: Default port is 6240. Don't specify anything unless port 6240 is already used.
Now I just have to figure out how to proxy through a firewall that doesn't do http proxies!
