DRAUTO was disabled in version 9.2x. My understanding is that it caused
more problems than it fixed for most customers (i.e., possible in some cases
for *both* servers to think that they are primary, and both start accepting
update txns), so Informix removed it. We depend upon HDR for some critical
applications here at the bank, and we have always used manual failover
(DRAUTO=0), even prior to 9.2x.

Subject: informix 9.4 configuration - DRAUTO


hello all!
we are upgrading to 9.4 (on 11i) from 9.21 on HP-UX 11. We are running
HDR and I noticed that our current config file does not have an entry
for DRAUTO. The config parameters listed in the 9.4 manual (Admin
Reference) does not list DRAUTO. Can someone enlighten me on what our
current situation is not having the param in the file and about 9.4.?
Thanks in advance
Tom
