Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

You should also check the permissions on the onstat utility
in $INFORMIXDIR/bin. Permissions should be:
-rwxr-sr-x 1 informix informix 1755934 Jul 16 14:26 onstat
We ran into a similar problem when the set group id setting had been lost.
