When the offline chunks are corrected (ie, hardware fixed), and you initiate a recovery for a 'down' mirrored chunk, a daemon process begins copying the contents of the primary chunk (the one that is still ON-LINE), to the chunk being recovered. ONLINE brings the chunk on-line if the recovery is successful. The recovery status (R) is transitional. If you are logged in as informix, you can change the status of a mirrored chunk from within DB-Monitor or from the command line. If you are root, only command line is available. How to do it from within DB-monitor: See page 3-99 of the OnLine Administrator's Guide. If a guide is not available, please order one. If you still have trouble, feel free to contact Tech Support (if you have a support aggreement) at 800-274-8184.
