Perl tools require odbc32 libraries. Before you use these tools, pre-pend the LD_LIBRARY_PATH with the odbc32 folder inside the Data Vault installation folder.
Unless you have defined the host name without the domain name as a subject alternate name, ensure that the HOST parameter in the SERVER section of ssa.ini is a fully qualified-domain name. The perl tools internally connect using the host name as provided in the SERVER section of ssa.ini.
For example:
HOST in the SERVER section of ssa.ini is "myhost" and the domain name is "mydomain.com."
If you have not used "myhost" as a subject alternate name while creating certificates, then ensure that the HOST parameter value in the SERVER section of ssa.ini is "myhost.mydomain.com." If you have used "myhost" as a subject alternate name, you can provide "myhost" as the HOST parameter value.
