Configure ODBC Data Sources on Linux or UNIX

Configure ODBC Data Sources on Linux or UNIX

Copy the DataDirect Driver Manager to the server where PowerExchange and the ILM Engine are installed. Then configure environment variables and create the odbc.ini file.
  1. Copy the DataDirect Driver Manager from the computer where PowerCenter is installed to the server where PowerExchange and the ILM Engine are installed.
    1. Copy the following directory to the system with the ILM Engine:
      Powercenter_installation_directory/ODBC6.1
    2. Tar the entire directory, copy it using FTP, and then untar the directory on the target system.
  2. Add the ODBC6.1/lib directory to one of the following environment variables:
    • LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Sun or Linux
    • SHLIB_PATH on HP-UX
    • LIBPATH on AIX
  3. Create the odbc.ini file and set the ODBCINI environment variable to point to this file. Include the following line for each data source:
    Compatibility=ILMBRIDGE
  4. For HP-UX systems, change the driver name in the
    odbc.ini
    file from
    libdtlodbc.so
    to
    libdtlodbc.sl
    .
For more information, see the
PowerExchange Reference Manual.
The following example shows a section of an
odbci.ini
file for one data source:
[nrdb2_mhz8902] Driver=/pwx_installation_directory/source/libdtlodbc.so Description=dBase Database= DBType=nrdb2 Location=zos_listener_name DBQual1= DBQual2= MaxRows=0 Compress=N Encrypt=N ConfirmWrite=N PaceSize=0 InterpretASRows=N BulkLoad=N DeleteTempFiles=0 LoadOptions=0 JCLTemplate= CTLTemplate= ModeType=0 ModeTime=0 Time=0 Space= pace=0 SecSpace=0 Compatibility=ILMBRIDGE
