Informix on windows NT
Hi, We currently run Informix on Unix, but we're considering setting up DS2000 on Windows NT Are there any problems/issues that we should be aware of ? Thanks, Debbie
Why are you thinking about Windows/NT ? Better, really, better go to LINUX!

hi, Informix Dynamic Server 2000 (DS2000), Workgroup Edition, is portable, supporting both Windows NT and various UNIX platforms, and is optimized to fully exploit the operating system's powerful native features. This offers choices in performance and scalability. On Microsoft Windows NT, such optimizations include: -> Implementation of virtual processors and client requests as Windows NT threads to take advantage of Windows NT's inherent multithreading capability; -> Effective handling of disk I/O and network I/O through the use of a high -performance, Windows NT-specific Win32 application programming interface; -> Use of Microsoft's advanced operating system technologies such as preemptive multitasking to improve resource utilization; -> Implementation as a Windows NT Service for integrated control with the operating system; -> Integration with and full support for the Windows NT Registry -> Use of Windows NT Event Service to report and store system alerts and events. Requirements of DS2000 on Windows NT to install: Hardware Requirements For NT Server: 32-MB RAM 64-MB swap space 40-MB disk space CD-ROM Drive For PC Client (development system) 100-percent IBM-compatible PC 486/66 or greater 32-MB RAM 50-MB disk space CD-ROM drive VGA monitor Software Requirements : For NT Server: Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 3 or above) TCP/IP WinNT File System (NTFS) For PC Client Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95, or Windows 98 Microsoft C/C++ compiler version 4.1 TCP/IP Protocol Please visit the following link for more information: http://www.informix.com/informix/products/pa/ids2000.htm Hope this proves useful. courtesy(www.qsupport.com) In article <923605DC7F0FD311BD8C0090274D146D0ADD61@ccwin02.cclub.uk.com>, Debbie Caswell <debbie.caswell@caravan-club.co.uk> wrote: > Hi, > We currently run Informix on Unix, but we're considering setting up > DS2000 on Windows NT > Are there any problems/issues that we should be aware of ? > > Thanks, > Debbie > > Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
