Installing on a computer running Informix

Follow the guidelines presented here when installing Rational® Synergy on a computer running Informix®

About this task

When you install Rational Synergy on a computer running Informix, you must use the following guidelines to avoid potential problems. Use these guidelines regardless of the software versions Informix supports, and whether Informix is running for earlier releases of Rational Synergy or for vendor software:

Procedure

Perform the following steps to check the server number for a database server:

  1. Set user to informix.
    $ su - informix
  2. Set the environment variables.
    $ CCM_HOME=ccm_home; export CCM_HOME
    $ PATH=$CCM_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
  3. Edit a file in the $INFORMIXDIR/etc directory (for Rational Synergy, this directory is $CCM_HOME/informix/etc). The file name is the same as the server name in Rational Synergy, but might be different if it was not created by Rational Synergy. A typical name is onconfig. Search this file for SERVERNUM to see its value.
