A long startup is almost always due to an abnormal shutdown. Was the machine shutdown? If so check that there is a proper shutdown script in /etc/rc or /etc/systemd (depending on what Unix flavor you run).
You can verify this by looking at the message log. Is there a "stopped" message?
11/27/2020 15:57:42 Checkpoint Statistics - Avg. Txn Block Time 0.000, # Txns blocked 0, Plog used 5, Llog used 2
11/27/2020 15:57:43 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Stopped.
12:51:09 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Started.
During startup were there any completed or rolled back transactions?
11/29/2020 12:51:19 Logical Recovery has reached the transaction cleanup phase.
11/29/2020 12:51:19 Logical Recovery Complete.
0 Committed, 0 Rolled Back, 0 Open, 0 Bad Locks
After a normal shutdown all of these numbers should be zeros. If not, then the systems crashed, you don't have a good shutdown script, or someone performed a hard halt of the machine (shutdown -h now) instead of performing a normal shutdown.
