That's one downside of IDS being able to run unattended for years... no-one is left when it finally needs some maintenance..
1. Make sure your user is a member of Informix-Admin group (like the informix user for example).
2. Set your command line environment by running the command shell for your IDS instance from the IDS Start menu.
3. Look under \\ifmxdata in the IDS install drive to see where the existing chunks are (assuming it's a standard Windows/NT installation).
4. Create the file you'll use as a new chunk, e.g. "copy NUL filename"
5. As Obnoxio says run "onspaces --" to see the options for adding a chunk to a dbspace. The manual page is here: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/idshelp/v10/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.adref.doc/adref381.htm
That is for v10 but for adding a chunk to a dbspace the usage hasn't changed.

Subject: Need quick informix help
Have a client from waaay back with an old Informix 7.31 app on an NT
4.0 box (yes really). Two of the databases on it are out of room and
need a chunk added or something. I haven't touched Informix in too
many years to remember how to do this. Can someone either help me do
this or actually log on there (have to go through PCAnywhere) and do
it for me? Be glad to pay for it. Shouldn't take long for someone
who knows what they are doing!
Thanks
MollyShark
