In Response To: Re: Informix crashing without a message (Art Kagel)

Stop the scheduler with

execute function task ("scheduler stop");

Then run

oncheck -cR
oncheck -ce
oncheck -cc
oncheck -cID sysmaster
oncheck -cID sysadmin

then start the scheduler

execute function task ("scheduler start");

Regards,
David.
