New installation
I'm installing IDS 9.4 on a new machine (Solaris 9).
The install went fine.
I set up a 512MB raw chunk for the rootdbs.
I set the ROOTSIZE to 60000
When I do an oninit -i, I get the following:
bash-2.05$ oninit -i
This action will initialize IBM Informix Dynamic Server;
any existing IBM Informix Dynamic Server databases will NOT be
accessible -
Do you wish to continue (y/n)? y
oninit: Not enough room in ROOT DBspace.
Requested 161038K, ONCONFIG value 'ROOTSIZE' 60000K.
The relevant onconfig parms look like this:
# Root Dbspace Configuration
ROOTNAME rootdbs # Root dbspace nameROOTPATH /dbms/links/rootchnk # Path for device containing root
dbspace
ROOTOFFSET 0 # Offset of root dbspace into device
(Kbytes)
ROOTSIZE 60000 # Size of root dbspace (Kbytes)
And the link to the rootdbs chunk looks like this:
bash-2.05$ pwd
/dbms/links
bash-2.05$ ls -la root*lrwxrwxrwx 1 informix informix 18 Apr 27 13:14 rootchnk ->
/dev/rdsk/c1t4d2s0
bash-2.05$
That space is on a Raid controller -- c1t4d2s0 is partitioned as
cylinders 0-255 for 512.00MB
So I'm not understanding why it's not having enough space for rootdbs,
and I'm hoping it's something really simple that someone can clue me in!
