Database Server Configuration After Installation
If you need to create a Dynamic Server instance after installation completes, you
can use the Server Instance Manager or use the standard configuration file
(onconfig.std) as a basis for a new configuration file.
The genoncfg utility is an alternative configuration method if you are comfortable
working in a command-line environment. With this utility, you set a short list of
parameters in an input file, from which the utility then generates a Dynamic
Server configuration file that is optimized for both your anticipated usage and
your host environment. You cannot use this utility to change a working
configuration file. The genoncfg utility is documented in the IBM Informix Dynamic
Server Administrator’s Reference.
The following information is provided for advanced users who must manually
start or change configuration of a database server instance.
Database Server Number
The database server number uniquely identifies a database server if more than one
instance of the database server is installed.
If only one instance of the database server is installed, set this number to 0. The
database server number that you specify is the value for the SERVERNUM
configuration parameter.
