You need to install. You didn't mention what your previous server was (IE: AIX binaries will not run on HP-UX, PA-RISC binaries will not run on Itanium, etc.), but even if it was binary compatible, you still need to install, since the install process also puts items into /usr/lib and creates links to them. Also, if you're using fbackup and frecover, depending on how you created your backup, /usr/informix/aaodir and /usr/informix/dbssodir may not be restored correctly. --EEM > -----Original Message----- > From: mchivaviro@okzim.co.zw [mailto:mchivaviro@okzim.co.zw] > Sent: Tuesday, April 11, 2006 11:52 AM > To: informix-list@iiug.org > Subject: Loading informix > > I have just bought a new server runing HP-UX 11i.
