ontape has a very strange behavior. It failed to change the logging mode of a database when you specify the database name in UPPER case. ontape -s -N Stores7 ontape -s -B storeS7 >>> Invalid logging change to Stores7 The error is consistent and can be reproduced on all my 5.x, 7.2x and 7.3 servers. I couldn't find any related topics in the documentation, but the last time I tried, I was still able to do "dbaccess Stores7". Database name shall not be case sensitive in informix. Anyone know is this a bug or did I miss something? thanks. -- Jeff So Email : jeffso@lucent.com
