Re: Alarm program on IDS9.30UC1
Posted in 2003
The poster had an alarm program (ALARMPROGRAM script) that wouldn't work as expected under IDS 9.30UC1. The visible portion of this thread is mostly banter between regulars joking about people asking the newsgroup instead of IBM Informix technical support, with the only advice implied being to check the ALARMPROGRAM setting in onconfig. The original poster replies (posted five times in duplicate) that everything was set up correctly and the script runs fine from the command line, thanking people for their help. No actual cause or fix is recorded.
