Configure ODBC Connectivity

Configure ODBC Connectivity

You can configure ODBC connectivity to a Db2 Warehouse database.
Perform the following steps to configure ODBC connectivity. For specific instructions, see the IBM Data Server driver documentation .
  1. To configure ODBC connectivity to the Db2 Warehouse database from the PowerCenter Integration Service, log in to the AIX machine as a user who can start the service.
  2. Set the ODBCINST environmental variable for the IBM Data Server driver using the following syntax:
    Driver=/home/toolprod/Adapters/IIAS_ODBC_CLI/odbc_cli/clidriver/lib/db2o.o.so
    Create a soft link with the name
    db2o.o.so
    in the
    <IBM Data Server Driver installation directory>/dsdriver/lib
    directory. The soft link redirects to the following path
    <IBM Data Server Driver installation directory>/dsdriver/lib/db2o.o
    .
  3. Edit the existing
    odbcinst.ini
    file.
    Add an entry for the Db2 Warehouse data source under the section ODBC Data Sources and configure the data source.
    For example:
    [IBM DATASERVER DRIVER PACKAGE] Driver=/home/toolprod/Adapters/IIAS_ODBC_CLI/odbc_cli/clidriver/lib/db2o.o.so
    For more information about IBM Data Server driver connectivity, see the IBM Data Server driver documentation.
  4. Restart the Informatica services.
