-211 file not open

During a very long process in SQL (almost 36 hours ...) inserting rows (about 150000) in two database tables Informix returns this error: -211 Cannot read system catalog (systables) ISAM error -101: file is not open. and then any new access on database (with this process) fails with the same error. Using oncheck -cc doesn't return any error. In log there is any message (only logical log completed and checkpoints). I'm using a IDS 7.31.UD1 on a Solaris 2.8 (same problems in a Windows 2000). Any help ? Thanks.
