Re: XPS - coserver problems

Use: Regular Startup EveryDay After Initialization: xctl -b -C oninit First and ONLY FIRST time Initialization: xctl -b -C oninit -iy You should be on 8.2 now so as to take advantage of any potential bug fixes, etc. If you've set up your ONCONFIG correctly and your environment, the only thing remaining is to make sure your XMF stuff is set up with the operating system. Check with your release notes, your system administrator, and tech support as needed. And remember if you made changes to one ONCONFIG, it must be propagated across all the nodes. Judging from your note it looks like you set up a single coserver, so this shouldn't be a problem. XPS, it's so much fun! :-) Tim Platinum Repository wrote: > > We 've installed Informix XPS (8.1) on a HP (OS: HP-UX 10.20) machine, > changed the onconfig.xps - file and set te main-environment variables. > Our Problem: > after the command: > > xctl -b -X= oninit -iyX= > > we have the error: > > unable to connect to id=1 node=..hostname.. xctl: faild on coserver > nodes: 1(..hostname..) . > > This coserver name is written in the /etc/hosts, ~/etc/sqlhosts and in > the onconfig.xps file and have the same expression like with the command > 'hostname'. > > How many characters allowed for a hostname? > What could be our problem? > > Thanks for your help! -- Tim Schaefer tschaefe@mindspring.com tim_schaefer@fpl.com http://www.inxutil.com Informix on Linux?
