No, not really. It was actually the lines before these that contained the
error:
PHYSICAL LOG Pages 63 2500
EXT LOG RESERVED PAGES 2563 8
FREE 2563 564
ERROR: Extents overlap
Note that there are two extents - ext log reserved pages, and free - which
both start at 2563. That is why he got the "extents overlap" error. And yes,
it looks bad to me. No telling what will go bad with something like this in
your chunk free list. Possibly it will re-allocate the pages to the next
table you create, and overwrite your extended log reserved pages. If this is
a production system, I'd recommend calling Informix Support (assuming you have
support) and seeing if they can fix it.
