RE: oninit with IDS 7.30.UC5-1 / HP-UX 10.20

Speaking of installation order, I don't think Informix itself has quite worked out how its products are to be installed. Their Tech Support does not know what their Manuals say and vice-versa. The "Installation Guide" for IDS 7.3 for Unix says clearly that the order of installation is unimportant. The Guide for Informix Client Products 2.01 says that Client SDK or Connect has to be installed BEFORE the server. I called Tech Support on this and the "engineer" there told me that Client SDK has be installed AFTER the server. When I told him of what Informix manuals had to say on the matter, he said that the Manuals were from a different department. So....go figure! Alanoly J.
