I think, you should do, what the tbinit says: INFORMIX don't know, where your mirror chunk is. You have to add it first; it is not enough to descripe it in the tbconig file. The easiest way to do this, is to work with tbmonitor. By the way: You should set your permissions to 660; You should not use a block device (brwxrw...) Hope that helps; Volker
