You should be using at least 9.40.UC3 - preferably later still.

The permissions on your chunk - /home/informix/dbs/rootdbs - should be
owner informix, group informix, 660 permissions. Neither more
permission bits nor fewer permission bits.

We have got 9.40.UC3 working OK and I believe I did get .UC1 working
before that. Can't check anymore as we upgraded all our sites.

Are you using links to raw devices? If so it is the permissions on the
actual device that is important not the permissions on the symbolic
link. If you are using cooked files I would strongly urge you to
locate them somewhere else, especially if /home/informix is your
INFORMIXDIR.
