dbserveralias question

Hello folks, I'm still kinda new to the DBA game, but have been tasked with creating db server aliases that work on our development box so that testing/development can move off our production server. We are running HP/UX 11.0 and Informix 7.31.UC4. Below are my entries that I have created in the onconf and sqlhosts files. The idea is that developers who are writing cgi and apps don't have to worry about the Informix server name. To that extent, I put in the sqlhosts and dbserveralias entries in their proper files. What seems to be happening though is that when cgi's get called, they are pulling data from the production server rather than the development server. Can anyone see where I might have screwed up with my entries? Thanks in advance, will summarize for the list. ***onconfig file*** SERVERNUM 0 # Unique id corresponding toa Dynamic Server instance DBSERVERNAME development # Name of default database server # this is experimental and should be removed if unsuccessful, reinstating # the next following line #************************************************************************ DBSERVERALIASES production,istarcars # List of alternate dbservernames **sqlhosts entries*** development onipcshm development development istarcars onsoctcp development istarcars cgistarcars onsoctcp development cgistarcars scistarcars onsoctcp development scistarcars poistarcars onsoctcp development poistarcars piistarcars onsoctcp development piistarcars hmistarcars onsoctcp development hmistarcars cmistarcars onsoctcp development cmistarcars # experimental attempt to employ a DBSERVERALIAS to isolate # developers from server name differences #************************************************************************* production onipcshm development development production onsoctcp development development Javier Zayas System Administrator The Claremont Colleges Administrative Information Services Office javier.zayas@cuc.claremont.edu Direct:(909)607-3143 Cell: (909)319-0278 http://www.cuc.claremont.edu
