Element Purpose Key Considerations
-R Re-creates the .infos.dbservername file Restrictions: Before you use the -R option, set the INFORMIXSERVER environment variable to match the DBSERVERNAME parameter from the ONCONFIG file. Do not use the -R option if INFORMIXSERVER is one of the DBSERVERALIAS names.

Additional Information: For more information, see .infos.dbservername.

The database server uses information from the .infos.dbservername file when it accesses utilities. The database server creates and manages this file, and you should never need to do anything to the file. However, if .infos.dbservername is accidentally deleted, you must either recreate the file or shut down and restart the database server.
