Posted in 1997

dbspace restore.
Thanks

As best I can remember, the Informix recommended method is as follows:
o Set your archive device to an operating system file (touch the
file to create prior) and some small size (500K)
o Start ontape
o When it asks for the second tape, crash it (^c, ^\\)
o Start a restore from this file
o When it asks for the second tape, crash it.
Your dbspaces should now be marked down.
