Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

The INFORMIXSERVER , ONCONFIG and INFORMIXDIR were set correctly.
oninit processes were running, dbaccess was working fine.
I tried to bring down the server using onmonitor , it gave the same message.
"shared memory not initialized for INFORMIXSERVER"
The way I solved this problem was
to restart the server using onmonitor, then it gave message like '
recovering database .............' ( some similar wording I dont recall
now) . Then I aborted that process immediately . Then I tried to bring down
the server using onmonitor menu. It worked . Then I checked if the shared
memory segments are cleared and restarted the server.
