Check for DBMS Server Process Errors on UNIX
The command to start the DBMS Server process (iidbms) from the installation owner login is ingstart -iidbms. If the DBMS Server did not start:
1. Verify that the recovery process (dmfrcp) is running. Details are described in Recovery Process Errors on UNIX (see page Recovery Process Errors on UNIX).
2. Verify that the recovery process is not in a recovery state (see page Recovery Process Monitoring). This is a likely situation if there was a sudden shutdown because of a power failure or some other systems failure.
3. Try to start up a DBMS server. Issue the following command at the operating system prompt:
ingstart -iidbms
4. If you corrected a DBMS server problem, verify that Ingres starts normally. Shut down the partially started installation with the ingstop command.
5. Restart the installation with the ingstart command.
