When I run oncheck -cr, I get the following error message:
I/O open() chunk 1, pagenum 0, pagecnt 12 --> errno = 13

finderr -13

-13 Permission denied.
An operating-system error code with the meaning shown was unexpectedly returned to the database server. This error code usually follows an attempt to execute a file that is not a program or shell script; it might reflect an error in a REPORT TO specification in a report. Look for other operating-system error messages that might give more information.

This message probably means that the disk devices used by Informix have incorrect owner and group and/or permissions.

The correct owner and group is [ informix : informix ] and the correct permissions are [ read-write - read-write - none ].

The Unix commands used to set this configuration is:
chown informix:informix [device name]
chgrp 660 [device name]

It is interesting that you can be using Informix just fine without problems (except for oncheck -cr failing) with the incorrect settings, but that's the way it is.
