Re: Informix Server is not writing to a log file - Urgent.

Just for your future reference, if you have such critical issues you should probably be calling informix tech support. A lot of us don't get news immediately and can't be of much help in such conditions. Having multiple servers is not necessarily causing this issue, you should give us some more details on your hardware - number of CPU's, memory, etc. Did you start two dbimports on the same server or different servers? Have you been looking at the processes at the UNIX level (i.e. top)? Have you checked the system logs for any violations or such? I remember seeing tons of issues with 7.23.UC4, consider an upgrade to 7.30. In any case, I wish you luck in recovering the system. Try not to hard boot the box, only PC's like it :-) Arun Abhay Mannur wrote: > Hi All, > I created a new Informix server on a machine where already 5 servers are > up and running. > I started 2 dbimports parallely and it was working well the whole day > yesterday. > I found the dbimport on the new server is 98% done and hang. > The new server has not written in the log file after 3 AM. > I can't run any onstat, dbaccess or even onmode -k command. > It seems we have to plug off the machine. > Can anybody help me to find out the cause of this and is the new server > causing it ? > Environment : > HP-UX 10.20 > Informix 7.23uc4 > > Thanks in advance. > Abhay Mannur. > Informix DBA > Fairchild Semiconductor.
