Setting Permissions, Ownership, and Group

Files or raw devices that the database server uses must have the appropriate ownership and permissions.

On UNIX, the owner and group must be informix, and the permissions must be set to read and write for both user and group (but not for others).

If you want users other than informix or root to execute ON-Bar commands, create a bargroup group. Only members of bargroup can execute ON-Bar commands. The bargroup group is not created automatically during database server installation. For instructions on creating a group, see your UNIX documentation.
