RE: increase ROOTSIZE
Thanh wanted to raise ROOTSIZE from 20000 to 30000 on OnLine 5.x and IDS 9.2. Don Ignacio said ROOTSIZE is only used at initialization and the root dbspace is grown by adding a chunk with onspaces. Asked how to change the onconfig parameter afterwards, Christian Knappke said not to touch it and to treat it as the size of the first root chunk.
Auto-generated by Claude from the posts below — may be imperfect; read the full thread.
ROOTSIZE is set during initialization of the database server.
Just like any dbspace add another chunk to increase the size
of the dbspace. So if you want to increase the size of the
root dbspace, you just add another chunnk to the root
dbspace using onspaces.

Subject: increase ROOTSIZE
Hi,
I read "Informix Handbook" and "Informix Admin for IDS-9.20" but
could not find a way to increase rootdbs size. Could someone please
give a quick procedure to do it. I would like to increase ROOTSIZE
from 20000 to 30000 for both Online 5.x and IDS 9.2.
Thanks,
Thanh

I thank for the responses but what do I need to do to
change the ROOTSIZE parameter in the onconfig file
after the engine has been initialized ?
