Rule of thumb to use when you migrate from SE to Online is substitue the DB (or TB) in the utilities to on (e.g. tbmonitor - onmonitor, etc.), except dbaccess :-) ontape is the most primitive archiving tool, use onbar if you could. > > - I need some services to be started , so that my New-era application > can connect to the server.

All you have to do is set the correct environment variables (INFORMIXSERVER, etc.), open the TCP/IP ports in a network environment, and you're all set. This is due to the fact that Online is multi-threaded while SE was not (so every time an user connected to the engine, it started an sqlexec process).
