Both installation create an instance using the discontinued parameter MIRROR set to 0! attn: Ignoring unknown or deprecated config parameter (MIRROR) 2.

Hi, FYI Saw this on v15 with a 4 core VM and AUTO_TUNE_SERVER_SIZE set to SMALL. 22:36:49 Dynamically added 1 cpu VP 22:36:50 ** AUTO TUNING - Added CPU VP.What are the thresholds for this happening? Regards, David. ------------------------------ David Williams ------------------------------

David could you just quickly confirm that neither MIRROR nor LOG_BACKUP_MODE exist in your V15 $INFORMIXDIR/etc/onconfig.std file? They should not be there. Assuming that's the case and your fresh V15 install results in a generated config file that includes them, then we've got an installer issue that we'll fix for the Q1 release. Thanks. ------------------------------ John Lengyel ------------------------------

Hi, Neither parameter is on onconfig.std, it is an installer issue. Regards, David. ------------------------------ David Williams ------------------------------

Hi David, You will have success with JAVA 11 or 17. The problem is with JAVA 21. I had the same problem. I can't answer why this is happening. Мaybe we need better clarification about JAVA versions for installation of Informix server, CSDK, JDBC and InformixHQ.
