The Rons are the standard Informix command line utilities with a tcp style wrapper around them that allow any Informix command to run on a remote server. This means from a central server you can control any Informix instance you can see, without telnet'ing around the network and without the need for a web server.

Usage

If you know how to execute the standard Informix commands then you can run the Ron version - it's the same command with an 'r' in front and instance information. For example

From the command line on devbox

onstat -d

Becomes

ronstat devinst -d

from a remote server
