Known problems

At time of publication, the following problems were known:

Removing users when you uninstall the database server
If there are multiple installations of the product on the computer, and you are uninstalling one of the products, be careful when you use the Remove users and groups option. Do not remove users or groups that are required by the other installations of the product. If you remove users or groups that are required by the other products, the other products will not start or they will be inoperable.
SuSE 15 OS on Linux86_64
OpenSSL certificates are installed in a different location on SuSE 15. This causes a breakdown in communication between the FlexNet license server and the Informix server.
Workaround:
- Verify certificate on machine: rpm -qa | grep cert
- Install the certificate bundle and create the link: rpm -ql ca-certificates-2+git20170807.10b2785-7.3.3.noarch |grep ca-
- bundle: ln -s /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem $INFORMIXDIR/etc/ixRootCA.pem

Notice of deprecation
The Backup to Amazon Simple Storage Services (AWS S3) provided in the ontape utility is considered deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming release. This feature will be replaced with the same REST based technology used in the Informix Primary Storage Manager, to expand coverage to other cloud providers and enhance functionality.
End of support
The Informix Storage Manager is not a valid storage manager anymore for the ON-Bar utilities. Usage of the old XBSA library with 14.10 is not supported and can lead to unpredictable results including loss of data or inability to restore.
