I am having difficulty with imported restore with ISM I set the environment variables and run the ism_catalog command. It never completes. I've left it for as much as 30 minutes and nothing is happening. sddev1:D::/home/informix>export ISM_CLIENT=north sddev1:D::/home/informix>export ISM_SERVER=sddev1 sddev1:D::/home/informix>export ISM_DATA_VOLUME_POOL=ISMData sddev1:D::/home/informix>export ISM_LOG_VOLUME_POOL=ISMLogs sddev1:D::/home/informix>ism_catalog -recreate_from /ISMData/nDBlevel0 scanner: scanning file disk nth0511182200DD on /ISMData/nDBlevel0 scanner: file disk nth0511182200DD already exists in the media index scanner: no client resource found for host `loopback', no index entries to be saved for save set `INFORMIX:/onlineipc_nr/rootdbs/0' (ss id 60620) Does anybody have any ideas on what might be wrong? regards Malcolm
