It depends. > Our page size is currently 2K - I've been told it should be 4K. Do you have the correct port?

I doubt it. People seem to assume that a 64 bit port is always going to have a 4k page size. Mine doesn't. DEC ALPHA, 4.0.d, 2k page size! I had an Informix tech support guy dial in the other day and try to dump 4k pages. He must have thought the server was shot, until he realised. :-) Cheers, -- Mark. +----------------------------------------------------------+-----------+ | Mark D.
