Disastor Recovery for IDS 9.4-sysmaster/utils?

Posted in 2008

Summary

Will Landstrom asked whether the sysmaster and sysutils databases are created at engine install or with a user database. Mark Denham said they are created when the instance is first built using scripts sysmaster.sql and sysutils.sql in INFORMIXDIR/etc. Art Kagel specified they are created during initialization with oninit -i. Will thanked them; answered.

When the instance is first built. There are 2 scripts sysmaster.sql and sysutils.sql in $INFORMIXDIR/etc that are used for this purpose.
