Re: chunk down

Also, if you have lost the underlying physical media without a mirror or backup, fret not...there is a way, albeit somewhat painful. Informix Tech support can dial in to your system and use their voodoo magick (called tbzero, and another whose name I forget). This coveted magick is not divulged to users but will successfully restore you system and allow the dropping of the chunk/dbspace. Art S.
