It is a mature technology that allows the replication of a complete instance (including all logged databases) to a standby instance. The 2nd instance runs in a readonly mode and can be used to offload reporting and complex SQL queries from the primary instance. In case of a failure of the primary instance, the standby instance can take over the work of the primary. text/html 2008-07-23T13:38:07+02:00 eherber http://www.informix-zone.com/idswiki/doku.php/idsdev:admin:commands?rev=1216813087&do=diff [Array] There are some fundamental commands you should be aware of. Those commands enable you to accomplish the basic administration of the IDS instance. Most of the commands are described in greater detail in other sections of this Wiki which will be simply referenced in this article. So this article serves as an index page for basic IDS commands. text/html 2008-07-22T18:04:06+02:00 spokey http://www.informix-zone.com/idswiki/doku.php/change_history?rev=1216742646&do=diff [Array] * 2008-07-22 - Article Message Log added * 2008-02-14 - Compilation Third Party Product Support added * 2007-12-21 - Article SDS - Shared Disk Secondary added * 2007-12-06 - Article OAT - Open Admin Tool for IDS added * 2007-11-25 - Article Configuring Connectivity added * 2007-11-24 - Article Creating the Demo Database added * 2007-11-19 - Article Locks, Semaphores, Latches, Mutex and Conditions added * 2007-11-19 - Section Determining Operation Mode via onstat added… text/html 2008-07-22T18:00:18+02:00 spokey http://www.informix-zone.com/idswiki/doku.php/idsdev:admin:onstat?rev=1216742418&do=diff Message Log The message log is a plain text file that contains a number of useful records, such as: * checkpoint duration * filling of logical logs * logical log backup information * allocation of additional virtual memory segments * startup and shutdown text/html 2008-07-22T14:41:12+02:00 eherber http://www.informix-zone.com/idswiki/doku.php/idsdev:ha:sds?rev=1216730472&do=diff An SDS instance has read access to the same disk devices as the primary instance. SDS instances can be configured for offloading complex reports and SQL queries from the primary instance and can also increase high availability by serving as a failover instance. text/html 2008-05-14T08:43:52+02:00 kfoster http://www.informix-zone.com/idswiki/doku.php/idsdev:general:thirdparty?rev=1210747432&do=diff This is an informal effort to gather a list of products that run on Informix Dynamic Server. It will be impossible to ever gather a complete list, or to keep the list perfectly up to date. But hopefully it's still helpful in its “imperfect” state.

They might not be essential for a developer installation, but they show some good practices for larger installations. The nice side effect is that you learn even more about IDS :-)
