Initial ON-Bar / Storage manager configuration

All,
There are two methods one can use to tell ON-Bar which storage manager
you are using.
1. Insert a record into the bar_version table using the following SQL:
insert into bar_version values ('1','2.1.5','adsm','2'); {values willdiffer depending on storage manager, etc.}
This method is to allow the administrator to add/change/remove the
storage manager configuration to/from a running system.
2. Create $INFORMIXDIR/etc/sm_versions with the following line in it:
1|2.1.5|adsm|2
i.e. a pipe delimited record
This method can only be used when one is initialising the databse (i.e.
oninit -i).
I've never got the second method to work. Has anyone else? If so, what
am I missing?
