Set Environment Variables

After you install Dynamic Server 10.0, verify that the INFORMIXDIR environment variable and the following environment variables are set to the correct values:

INFORMIXSERVER
ONCONFIG

PATH
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS (if used)

Important:

On UNIX or Linux, the client application looks for the sqlhosts file in the etc directory in the INFORMIXDIR directory. However, you can use the INFORMIXSQLHOSTS environment variable to change the location or name of the sqlhosts file.

If the name of the pload database is not onpload, the default name, you must set the environment variable DBONPLOAD to the name of the pload database.
