Re: oninit -i: passwd problem and error in buildin

Posted By: ART KAGEL, BLOOMBERG/ 731 LEXIN
Date: Tuesday, 21 November 2006, at 10:32 a.m.

All of the messages I see are informational and do not indicate any problems:

15:02:00 Shared memory segment 0x40000000 could not be forced resident.
-- Your new OS may not be configured to allow resident segments as large as
the instance's shared memory segment is. Check the kernel settings.

15:02:00 Warning: ONCONFIG dump directory (DUMPDIR) '/tmp' has insecure
permissions
-- Check and possibly modify the perms on /tmp

15:02:05 Contiguous shared memory segment allocation failed at 0xd0000000.
Allocation successful at 0x30000000.
Check SHMBASE is consistent with the value in $INFORMIXDIR/etc/onconfig.std.
If you are using the correct SHMBASE value in your ONCONFIG file, then
consider this message informational only.
-- Do as it says.

15:02:10 Warning: Invalid (non-existent/blobspace/disabled) dbspace listed in
DBSPACETEMP: 'dbtemp1'
-- These are because the ONCONFIG file has a DBSPACETEMP setting naming
dbspaces that do not exist. Since you've just initialized the instance that
makes sense. Create the temp dbspaces you want and possibly modify the ONCONFIG
setting to name those new temp dbspaces and some regular ones for logged temp
tables.

15:02:10 listener-thread: err = -951: oserr = 0: errstr = informix@otto:
Incorrect password or user informix@otto is not known on the database ser
ver.
-- Looks like you forgot to create a loginable account for user 'informix'
from otto in group 'informix' on the new server machine or otto is not a
trusted host there.

hi,

we wrapped up the directory /usr/informix/ where informix was installed
and unwrapped it at another machine.

When we run oninit -iv, it gave the following info.

Any idea?

Thanks,
Frank

informix@otto $ onstat -version

Build Number: N202
Build Host: ibm6c1b
Build OS: AIX 5.2

GLS Version: glslib-4.00.UC8

informix@otto $ oninit -iv
