Hi there
Just a quick note for any admin who'll be eyeing this : When I registered first time, a message popped up, informing me that :

Must'nt $username and $email address be your username and email address?
Anyways, on to my two questions :
1. On one Informix installation (runs on Windows Server 2003 Standard) when we run onstat -d, it gives an error saying that Informix is not a member of the Informix-Admin group. I double-checked, and Informix is a member of the Informix-Admin group. I then created another user, added said user to this Informix-Admin group, and when I try to run onstat -d again, I get the same error message, $user is not a member of the Informix-Admin group. Even the administrator account gives the same problem. (We have planned to reinstall Informix on this particular PC anyway, but suggestions are welcome).
How do we fix this problem?
Since we can't access the Informix database, can we simply copy the rootdbs file(s) over to temporary storage, reinstall windows and informix, and copy these back again? (Dbexport won't work due to the account problem). There are data in the database, but we have a catch-22 situation here - can't backup when we can't access the database...
2. How can we determine the maximum size of the locks and buffers in the onconfig file?
Code:
# Shared Memory Parameters
LOCKS 150000 # Maximum number of locks
BUFFERS 80000 # Maximum number of shared buffers
Should the answers to these questions be already posted, I will appreciate it if you can point (or shove) me to these.
Kind regards
