Re: Fail Consistency Check -- newmode

Kevin This usually means that there is something seriously wrong with the data. Are you checkpoint ok or does the same error occur in informix.log ( or whatever you have called it ) ? Running tbcheck -ci <database> will check the indexes. This would be good If you can find no operational errors from this then check with Informix it may be a bug in the tbcheck -pt program Regards Terry In article <4p3jvn$que@news.tcom.co.uk>, ups@pop3.tcom.co.uk (Kevin Page) says: > >I have a very strange error comming up on one of my informix logs.
