RE: Sharing Chunks between IDS Instances
I don't know about supported, but Informix (5,6,7,9,10 and 11) won't
stop you from doing it. I don't know about version 8 as I haven't used
it that much.
The only time I have found chunk sharing between instances useful is
when demonstrating to a class the mess you end up with and how confusing
that can be to figure out.

Yes Jonathan ,
it is not documented anywhere that a chunk can be shared, but it is
supported
on IDS 9.40.FC5XF and i have tested it NOT TO PROVE ANYONE OR ANYTHING
WRONG
but to check my belief. and i have lost a big table as the result of it.
I could do it as it is development (or playground) machine and i have
proper
backups in place. I also agree with you that no one should set up chunk
sharing at any cost.
I sincerely apologise to Informix architect team if it hurt.
vartika.
