Downgrade Linux. Or get a more recent build of SE - which I'm sure
you're trying to do.

You are going to have to speak to (horror of horrors) an IBM person, in
Tech Support or Sales. Or give up on the customer on whose behalf
you're trying to obtain the unobtainable.

I shall be even more witty.

Written on 8th September 2005

"If only you'd buy your Informix maintenance through that specialist
Informix
reseller that maintains its own comprehnsive online media library for
customers, eh ....?! "

So what happened to the "comprehnsive online media library" then?

David.

Well, who'd even believe that anyone still uses Standard Engine, eh?! I
deleted that part of the "comprehensive media library" at the same time that
I threw out all my V2000 video tapes, my dictaphone, my phonograph and my
IIUG instructions for spindle balancing for IDS.

Also, the person to whom the Sept 2005 comment was addressed has Seen The
Light and is now a loyal Ardenta customer! Will Morgan Stanley be next? Or
are you still stuck in the Dark Ages .... ;-)

In fact, I hope to persuade the SE customer to upgrade to IDS, as there's a
promotion on for so doing at present. But I'm going to look a complete arse
if I turn up on their site unable even to get the SE media to show how easy
the upgrade is ...

Thanks to Goradz, and to Cats for pointing out where the media is freely
available for download.

I've visited the customer who has an elderly green-screen
4GL-on-Standard-Engine system. Strategically they are moving away from
Informix. What benefits, other than the ability to take online backups, can
I offer them to move to IDS?

Thx
Neil

I should have made it clearer that this is a small shop who are happy enough
with their SE system until they can move away from IBM. Of the above I
guess Online Archiving is the only one really likely to appeal. A useful
list for other, bigger, more committed-to-IBM sites though, so thanks for
that.

When a host crashes SE does not do any type of recovery afterwards.
Great for getting corrupt indexes that do not match the data,
also a great way to get duplicate values in a unique index. Online
does Fast Recovery when it starts and so recovers from a machine crash
gracefully.

Online checks page timestamps to ensure what is read is consistent and
has not been corrupted.
