Just a guess, but is it possible that the entry for ALARMPROGRAM in your ONCONFIG file does not exist or you're depending on PATH to find it? Art S. Kagel

Hi, if you have you ever started the IDS before, what has changed in your operating system since the last shutdown? I would either call IBM or run "strace oninit -v" or "truss oninit -v" Best regards, Stefan Weideneder Juan Pablo schrieb: > Hi: > > when initializing my INFORMIX leaves the following message to me error: > > $ oninit -v> Checking group membership to determine server run mode...succeeded > Reading configuration file '/usr/informix/etc/onconfig.nazca'...succeeded > Creating /INFORMIXTMP/.infxdirs...succeeded > Creating infos file "/usr/informix/etc/.infos.nazca_shm"...succeeded > Linking conf file "/usr/informix/etc/.conf.nazca_shm"...succeeded > Writing to infos file...succeeded > Checking config parameters...succeeded > Allocating and attaching to shared memory...succeeded > Creating resident pool 2194 kbytes...succeeded > Allocating 10016 kbytes for buffer pool of 2K page size...succeeded > Initializing rhead structure...succeeded > init_alarm failed > > They can help me with the problem ??? > > Thanks !!!! > > _________________________________________________________________ > MSN Amor: busca tu ½ naranja http://latam.msn.com/amor/
