Informix install on Solaris(unix) system help

Hi,

I have been given the task of installing Informix 10.00 FC5 on a Sunfire V100 running Solaris 10. The plan is to restore the last Informix backup from tape and test it on the V100 which is in our test/devel environment.
I have never worked with Informix and Solaris admin is still pretty new to me. I have read some documentation on installing Informix on a Unix system and see that you need to set up Unix configuration parameters and environmental variables. This is still not very clear for me.

Has anyone had any experience of installing Informix on Solaris?
Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
For now I would really like to prepare the system to enable me to install informix.

NAME
DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::Informix - Base Storage Class for Informix Support DESCRIPTION
This class implements storage-specific support for the Informix RDBMS METHODS
connect_call_datetime_setup Used as: on_connect_call => 'datetime_setup' In connect_info to set the "DATE" and "DATETIME" formats. Sets the following environment variables: GL_DATE="%m/%d/%Y" GL_DATETIME="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S%F5" The "DBDATE" and "DBCENTURY" environment variables are cleared. NOTE: setting the "GL_DATE" environment variable seems to have no effect after the process has started, so the default format is used. The "GL_DATETIME" setting does take effect however. The "DATETIME" data type supports up to 5 digits after the decimal point for second precision, depending on how you have declared your column. The full possible precision is used. The column declaration for a "DATETIME" with maximum precision is: column_name DATETIME YEAR TO FRACTION(5) The "DATE" data type stores the date portion only, and it MUST be declared with: data_type => 'date' in your Result class. You will need the DateTime::Format::Strptime module for inflation to work. AUTHOR
