Re: Maxconnect
Hi,
I think your problem is the setting of
$INFORMIXDIR environment variable.
I assume the environment setting you provided
below is the environment for the client
(and possibly MaxConnect)?
/informix/imc is the proper setting for the
Maxconnect deamon. But in your environment this
is not where the client runtime is installed,
therefore it will not find the GLS things in
there (and hence the error about locales).
So you need two environments, one for the
Maxconnect deamon only, and a different one
for the client application.
And while we are at it, I would keep things completely
separate (as you may have the case where even the
clients and Maxconnect will be on different machine
(i.e. a 3-tier environment). Therefore I would move
the clients' sqlhosts file to the clients $INFORMIXDIR
(/opt/informix) and set the clients' $INFORMIXSQLHOSTS
accordingly. You still need the existing sqlhosts file
in /informix/imc for Maxconnect itself.
Environment Setting for IMC deamon:
INFORMIXDIR where IMC is installed
IMCCONFIG IMC config file
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS IMC sqlhosts file
IMCSERVER IMC listener
INFORMIXSERVER IDS's imc listener
IMCADMIN IMC Admin listener
Example:
----------------------------------------------------
a) Existing config:
IDS onconfig file:
DBSERVERNAME ids
DBSERVERALIASES ids_soc
IDS sqlhosts file:
ids onipcshm ids_host ids_port
ids_soc onsoctcp ids_host ids_soc_port
Remote client's sqlhosts file:
ids_soc onsoctcp ids_host ids_soc_port
----------------------------------------------------b) New configuration for IMC:
IMC sqlhosts file:
ids_soc onsocimc ids_host ids_soc_port
imc onsoctcp imc_host imc_port
imc_admin onsoctcp imc_host imc_adm_port
=> IMC environment:
IMCSERVER imc
INFORMIXSERVER ids_soc
IMCADMIN imc_adm
----------------------------------------------------
c) New configuration for IDS:
IDS onconfig file:
[ NETTYPE socims,...,...,... ] # change if present
IDS sqlhosts file:
ids onipcshm ids_host ids_port
ids_soc onsocimc ids_host ids_soc_port
Remote Client's sqlhosts file:
ids_soc onsoctcp imc_host imc_port
----------------------------------------------------
I'll send directly to you a picture that better explains
the above example at a simple glance.
(Really a case of "a picture says more than 1000 words" here!)
