The problem is well known to me. It is based on the fact, that e.g. the
blademanager only connects as username 'informix' (I think hard coded), but
the tables belong to you. That means, that informix is no longer sysadmin, its
your user account.
If I remember correctly, I was able to use dbaccess, but after some days I
give up, because I was not able to run the blades.
The is one possibility to get the blades registered. Just search for the
script, containing all sql commands. Before you have to install two or
three blade registration tables. You can look them up in a standard server.
