Oninit Fatal error oninit: Fatal error in initialising ASF with 'ASF_INIT_DATA' flags; asfcode = '-25580'
Bob Moore
HPUX 11.00 Informix Version 7.31
The Database was installed under one hostname and ip. We changed the
system's hostname and ip, and are now getting this error. The database
ran fine until we changed hostname and ip. Also we have changed the
sqlhosts file to reflect the new hostname and ip. Are the licenses
tied to hostname in anyway? The real interesting part is the fact that
it also says that we are out of semaphores. That makes no sense to me
seeing how the db ran fine under it's orig. hostname and ip. I think
it is complaining about semaphores because it can't even create them.
Not that we are out.
Any Help would be appreciated greatly..This system is due to go live
4/6/02 on the network we can't get working.
Thanks,
BOB

... really interesting part ...

"Its" in the possessive sense does not have an apostrophe.
Can you post your /etc/services, /etc/hosts and $INFORMIXDIR/etc/sqlhosts
files? Er, I expect you can. I mean, please post them.

No.
Does your renamed host trust itself? Check your connectivity files.
Is is starting up a listener thread that you don't want or haven't configured?
Have you defined a service for TCP connections?
Check the database server name and aliases to see if they're what they
should be on the renamed box and that they match what you have in sqlhosts.

Check online.log and syslog. They may have some other stuff to tell you.

uuuuuffffff !!!!!
I'm not sure how it works at UNIX, but I had some very bad experiences =
changing the hostname with IDS 7.31 over WinNT. It was absolutly =
impossible to re-initialize the server. We had to reinstall all the =
informix server and reload the database after we really tried many ways =
to make it works with the new hostname, wich change was an exigency of =
the clients. But if you hasn't broke too much things trying to arrange =
the problem, you know, we did it, :-( , you can recover the server =
returning to the old hostname. After that, you can plann the change =
considering all this cuestions.
Some times later I discovered at informix web a tool for WinNT to help =
doing the change of the hostname, but I never had time to test it. Maybe =
you can find there anything like that to help at unix environment.
Well, that was just our experience, maybe there are other possibilities =
.... I expect you can find them.

We had no Problem to initialize an IDS after renaming the host under UNIX.
One of our customers had a problem after making some changes of DNS configuration.
In this case I wrote the IP-address and the service-number hard into sqlhosts.
It helped.
( Thats not the final solution, but production went on )
