IDS Runtime & IDS Development

Hi All, What are the differences between IDS Runtime & IDS Development? How can I determine the type of IDS (Run / Dev)? I don't have License Info. cards. How can I find out the License S/N for I4GL Runtime? Thanks, Nick.

Hi! If you have r4gl in $INFORMIXDIR/bin - you have Development license. If you only have fglgo it is Runtime. Login as root, change directory to where informix is installed and in etc subdirectory display contents of .snfile (dot snfile). It contains list of installed products.

Thanks, Michael. My $INFORMIXDIR/etc/.snfile : INFORMIX-4GL, Runtime Facility Serial Number AAC#J999999 INFORMIX-SQL, Runtime Facility Serial Number AAC#J999999 Informix Dynamic Server Serial Number AAC#J999999 Still, this doesn't tell the type of my IDS (Run/Dev?)! Should I assume that the order of these lines corresponds to the order of installation? In my $INFORMIXDIR/bin I don't have r4gl or fglgo. I think, both of these are for RDS not for 4GL. I have following entries in $INFORMIXDIR/bin : QA_cockpit ism_chk.pl nsrexec oncheck ontape ansrd ism_clone nsrexecd oncockpit onunload archecker ism_config nsrim ondatartr recover cdr ism_op nsrindexasm ondblog rofferr chkenv ism_rm nsrindexd onedcu sacego convloc ism_show nsrinfo onedpu save cron_autovop ism_shutdown nsrlic oninit savefs crtcmap ism_startup nsrlmc onkeymgr savegrp dbaccess ism_watch nsrlog onload scanner dbaccessdemo7 isqlrf nsrls onlog sgidsh dbexport mkdbsdir nsrmm onmode snmpdm dbimport mminfo nsrmmd onmonitor snmpdp dbload mmlocate nsrmmdbasm onparams sperform dbschema mmpool nsrmmdbd onperf start_autovop finderr mmrecov nsrtrap onpload start_oncatlgr glfiles msgfile onarchive onprobe stop_autovop infenv nsradmin onaudit onshowaudit stop_oncatlgr infxmsg nsrcap onautovop onsnmp uasm ipload nsrck onbar onspaces xtrace ism_add nsrclone onbar_d onsrvapd xtree ism_catalog nsrd oncatlgr onstat So, again What are the differences between IDS Runtime & IDS Development? How can I determine the type of IDS (Run / Dev)? I don't have License Info. cards. Regards, Nick.

AFAIK there is now no difference in content or price - there is now only one product. However to be sure ring Informix with your serial numbers and check. Certainly the stuff on the CD for dev & rt has been the same for some time.

Don't know what r4gl is. fglgo is the RDS runner which will be present whatever kind of rds you have - fglpc is the RDS compiller. I suspect r4gl is to do with compiled 4gl, a different product. > >Login as root, change directory to where informix is installed and >in etc subdirectory display contents of .snfile >(dot snfile).
