IBM GC23-7753-05 Server User Manual


 
v Each chunk file has an ownership and permissions setting that allows you to
modify it.
v You know the ROOTPATH (and MIRRORPATH, if applicable) for the deployed
instance, and provide the path information in a configuration parameter setting
or by using the -rootpath option.
Database Server Configuration
You can set essential configuration parameters in the command-line options of the
ifxdeploy command, instead of setting the values in the onconfig file.
In the ifxdeploy.conf file, you can provide server configuration parameters in the
following ways:
v Edit essential configuration parameter settings for your instance; the parameter
options that appear in the file mirror those that are available as command-line
options.
v If you do not edit a configuration parameter setting listed in the file, accept the
default value.
v Indicate a pre-existing onconfig file for the instance to use.
v Customize configuration parameter settings in the ONCONFIG part of the
ifxdeploy.conf file, which overrides any onconfig file settings. This is
particularly useful if you have brought your snapshot to the target computer,
analyzed the environment, and know that there are a few specific parameters
that are easier to adjust through the deployment utility instead of manually
editing the onconfig file.
Attention: The values of any options that you pass on the ifxdeploy command
line supersede the corresponding settings of the ifxdeploy.conf file.
An onconfig file is generated from onconfig.std if you do not specify one and the
ONCONFIG environment variable is not set.
Environment Variables
You can specify INFORMIXDIR, INFORMIXSERVER, INFORMIXSQLHOSTS,
and ONCONFIG environment variables in the ifxdeploy.conf file.
The deployment utility can read the following environment variables from the
process environment and use them to configure the deployed instance:
v INFORMIXDIR
v INFORMIXSERVER
v CLIENT_LOCALE
v DB_LOCALE
v DBLANG
v GL_USEGLU
v SERVER_LOCALE
If the INFORMIXDIR and INFORMIXSERVER environment variables are not set
on the target computer, you must enter them in the configuration file or when
prompted by the deployment utility. No default values are provided for these two
environment variables.
