Installation and Initial Configuration

When you configure OnLine for the first time, you specify two sets of
parameter values through

DB-M

onitor. The first set of parameters is the disk

parameters; the second set is the shared memory parameters. Each set of
values is specified on its own

DB-M

onitor screen. After you complete both

screens, OnLine prompts you to begin the initialization.

Verify that you are logged into your

UNIX

 system as user informix and that

your path includes $

. To access

DB-M

onitor, enter the

following command at the

UNIX

 prompt:

tbmonitor

The main

DB-M

onitor menu appears, as follows:

From the main menu, select the Parameters option. From the Parameters
menu options, select Initialize.
