In Response To: from IDS 9.4 to IDS 10 (ADEL Y M AL-JOUHAR)

Hi,
The symbolic link was formerly located at /informix9/rootdbs1. Then I've
deleted it using 'rm' and create another link using 'ln -s' in the
directory /informix10 and named it rootdbs1. Then I've change the same
in onconfig file, and then I set the engine to online to discover it is
still points to /informix9/rootdbs1, although this link is not present
at OS level...

Hope this help...

Hi,

I think you need to explain more clearly, what exactly you did and
where you changed something. Did you change the symbolic
link to point to somewhere else (using "rm" and "ln") ?
Did you create a new symbolic link ? Where do your symbolic
links point to now ? Or did you change the value of ROOTPATH
parameter in your $ONCONFIG file ? Did you create a new
$ONCONFIG file ? Did you set $ONCONFIG to the new file ?

Regards,
Martin
