Re: onbar question

Informix 7.30 comes with inbuilt ISM. Related to your missing library, these shared library get linked automatically when you run installserver script. If you are using 3rd party SM then at the time of configuartion it should be able to use this shared library or it should give you some environment variable like LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I am currently working with ALEXANDRIA SM with INFORMIX 7.30 and on-bar is working perfectly. I faced problem of hanging only if SM is not responding well with On-Bar or the drives are not working fine. On-Bar is recommended only if you DB size is greater than 2GB. if you are dealing less than this, then you can survive with ontape. Related to your unattended backup to disk, check iiug.org site, you would be able to get the idea.
