dbspace is down ...
Sorry for MIME format ... I have no alternative ... BUT PLEASE HELP ME ...
IX: OWS 7.2, OS: SCO UNIX
During my initial years as IX DBA, I tried to create two instances of
informix ows 7.2. For this I created a dbspace using COMMAND CENTER from my
windows station. then I put this name as ROOTDBS in my test ONCONFIG file.
It was a failure ... off cource ... then I created a raw file, and put that
name as ROOTDBS in test ONCONFIG. every thing went well ... till now.
Now when I try to use 'ontape' it crashes. and the reason is the same
dbspace mentioned above. When I try to drop that dbspace, its a failure ...
here is the output from 'onstat -d'
$ onstat -d
