Creating a Data Source Name on a Windows Operating System

Creating a Data Source Name on a Windows Operating System

This section describes how to create a data source name on the Windows operating system on which
B2B Data Exchange
 is installed.
Ensure that you configure a separate Data Source Name (DSN) entry for every database on which
B2B Data Exchange
 is installed.
  1. Open
    ODBC Data Sources
     from the Windows environment and select
    64-bit ODBC Data Source for DataDirect 7.1 New SQL Server Wire Protocol
    .
    The
    ODBC DataSource Administrator
     window is displayed.
  2. Select
    System DSN
     and click
    Add New
    .
    The
    Create New DataSource
     window is displayed.
  3. Select the following driver:
    DataDirect 7.1 New SQL Server Wire Protocol
    .
    The
    ODBC SQL Server Wire Protocol Driver Setup
     window is displayed.
  4. Enter the following details in the
    General
     tab:
    • DataSource Name
      . Name of the data source.
    • Host Name
      . Host name of the machine where the database server is installed.
    • Port Number
      . Port number of the database. The default port number for Microsoft Azure SQL Database is 1433.
    • Database
      . Name of the database instance.
  5. Select
    Advanced
    Extended Options
     and add
    WorkArounds2=2
    .
    Enabling the WorkArounds2=2 option, causes the driver to ignore the column size, decimal digits, or datetime values specified by the application and use the database defaults instead. Some applications incorrectly specify the column size or decimal digits when binding timestamp parameters.
  6. Select
    Security
     and update the following information:
    • User Name
      . Name of the Microsoft Azure SQL Database user.
    • Select any
      Encryption Method
      .
  7. Click
    Save
    .
    Data Source Name (DSN) details are saved.
  8. Test the driver with credentials of the user that you have provided in the procedure and ensure that the connection passes.
