oncheck -cc errors
Posted in 2003
Topics: Storage & Space Management, Versions, Editions & End-of-Life
When I run oncheck -cc to verify the integrity of the system catalogs I get
some errors regarding extent size discrepencies e.g.
ERROR: informix.sysindices nextsize 48 != tblspace.nxtsize 8
ERROR: informix.systabauth nextsize 32 != tblspace.nxtsize 8
ERROR: informix.sysdefaults nextsize 132 != tblspace.nxtsize 8
ERROR: informix.sysprocedures nextsize 32 != tblspace.nxtsize 8
Is this something I should really be worried about or is this just a warning
that indicates the system tables have started to fragment.
If so how do you correct this ?
p.s I am running IDS 9.21UC7.
It means you have a corrupt database. Has someone been updating the system
catalogs directly?
You will need to either
a) Restore from backup
b) Unload data from all databases in the instance. Recreate the instance
with oninit -i.
Add all dbspaces/chunks. Recreate all databases, reload all data.
b) Get Informix to dial in and fix the problem. They may insist you do a) or
b) anyway!

... I should think in a dbexport / dbimport ...

David,
I don't see this as a problem.
You might want to check with IBM, but I believe on an active system, this
might indicate that an index or procedure is being created when you ran the
oncheck. I would re-run during an inactive time (as much as possible) and
see if you are still getting the same results.
just a thought.
