1-58 IBM Informix OnLine Database Server Administrator’s Guide
Modify UNIX Startup and Shutdown Scripts
Shutdown
Add UNIX and OnLine utility commands to the UNIX shutdown script that
perform the following steps:
1. Set the INFORMIXDIR environment variable to the full pathname of
the directory in which OnLine is installed. (If multiple versions of
OnLine are running on your UNIX system, you must reset INFOR-
MIXDIR
for each OnLine system that you shut down.)
2. Set the PATH environment variable to include the $INFOR-
MIXDIR
/bin directory.
3. Set the TBCONFIG environment variable to the desired configuration
file.
4. Execute tbmode -ky, which initiates immediate shutdown and takes
OnLine offline.
These commands should execute after all user and database server processes
have finished working.
Examples of these commands for the C shell and Bourne shell follow:
C shell: setenv INFORMIXDIR /directory_name
setenv PATH $PATH:$INFORMIXDIR/bin
setenv TBCONFIG config_filename
tbmode -ky
Bourne shell: INFORMIXDIR= /directory_name
export INFORMIXDIR
PATH=$PATH:$INFORMIXDIR/bin
export PATH
TBCONFIG=config_filename
export TBCONFIG
tbmode -ky
