Collect information before running the getiqinfo script.
Location of the database file
Full path of the configuration file used to start the server, if one is used
Full path of the .iqmsg file, if the Sybase IQ message file has been renamed
If possible, leave the Sybase IQ server running, or start the server before running getiqinfo. This allows the script to collect internal database data that is only available when Sybase IQ is running. The script does not automatically start the server.
The script runs with the same environment settings that are used to start the Sybase IQ server. getiqinfo uses some IQ-specific environment variables to search for files.
The script puts collected data in the current directory (where you start the program). Be sure you have enough space under that directory. The script does not prompt for an alternative, but you can modify the script to change the output location by resetting the variable DEST_DIR.
