Hi,
When I try to perform "duplicatedb" from igres visual DBA, I am getting
the following error

"No answer from RMCMD on the server. Please make sure RMCMD is running.
Continue?"

Can someone let me know how to fix this?

Thanks,
Madhu.

Certain functions in VDBA cannot be executed directly on the DBMS,
instead a request to execute the function is loaded into a queue, and a
process running on the DBMS executes the function on VDBA's behalf.

The server-side process is the Remote Command Server, RMCMD. It is
normally started by default when ingres starts - use cbf, scroll down to
the "Remote Command" component, and check the startup count. If 0 use
the "EditCount" menu option to set it to 1.

It's also possible that the process fails on startup, often if
"ingstart" is being executed by a non-ingres user, or a different user
to that which owns the installation. Check the errlog.log file (in
$II_SYSTEM/ingres/files on a Unix server) to see whether there are any
errors reported after the DBMS starts from the RMCMD Server.

If you find errors in that log and can't work out how to resolve them,
post them up here.

I have restrted the ingres server and this time, I am getting a new
error "The execution of this command failed. Please verify with your
ingres administrator that the ingres service started successfully. The
operating system error was 2". This is on Windows and I don't find any
errlog.log file.

The errlog.log file will be there. What does II_SYSTEM point to? If you
don't know, open a DOS window and type this command:

set | find "II_SYSTEM"

Then go to that folder (it might be c:\IngresII) and "cd ingres\files".
That's where the errlog.log will be.

Or, you can go Start/Programs/Ingres/IngresNN/errlog.log - note
IngresNN wil be dependent upon your installation code.

I would expect there to be error messages prefixed by E_RE at the
bottom of that file. Perhaps E_RE001C_NO_PRIVILEGES or
E_RE0004_STARTUP_CONNECT_FAIL
