|--+-dbspace_name-+--+-STATIC------+----------------------------|
   '-dbspace_id---'  '-OPERATIONAL-'

Element	Purpose	Restrictions	Syntax
dbspace_name	The dbspace name	Must be a non-critical, non-temp dbspace	See Identifiers in onutil Commands.
dbspace_id	The dbspace number	Must be a non-critical, non-temp dbspace	See Identifiers in onutil Commands.

Use the onutil ALTER DBSPACE command to turn on/off the read-only mode of a dbspace.

Keyword: Description
STATIC: Turns on read-only mode
Note:

You can only use the STATIC keyword if the database server is in quiescent mode. It is recommended to back up the dbspace using onbar immediately after it is altered to STATIC mode. For more information, see IBM Informix: Backup and Restore Guide.
OPERATIONAL: Turns off read-only mode

You can determine the read-only status of a dbspace using the onstat -d command.
