Answer:

Yes, you can start Informix in verbose mode:
oninit -v (this works on NT as well)
Informix will print everything that happens.
To close the verbose mode: start a second terminal session (UNIX) or command prompt (NT) and execute:
onmode -ky
N.B. Don't close your terminal session (UNIX) or command prompt (NT) while in verbose mode. This will take Informix offline immediately.
