Traces
For information on migrating NonStop ODBC Server client applications to an
ODBC/MX environment, see the SQL/MX Comparison Guide for NonStop SQL/MP
Users.
Traces
You can trace activity for the ODBC Client.
Data collected:
Entry and exit calls from Microsoft ODBC driver manager to the ODBC/MX driver
Contents of the buffers, except password buffers
Activity between the ODBC/MX driver and the transport layer
For more information about client tracing, click the Help button on the Client Microsoft
Data Source Administrator.
For information about configuring client data source traces, see Tracing Client Data
Sources on page 3-6.
SQLStatistics Function This function does not support pattern value arguments for
table names, and returns index information for a specified
table name in the SQL/MX catalog.
If the index and table information is not in the SQL/MX
catalog, then it looks in the SQL/MP object (matching the
criteria) registered in the MP_PARTITIONS table (through
aliases) by looking up the catalog (where each table is
registered), then returns the index information for that
SQL/MP table.
SQLTables Function
When CatalogName is
SQL_ALL_CATALOGS
When SchemaName is
SQL_ALL_SCHEMAS
When TableType is
SQL_ALL_TABLE_TYPES
Returns all catalogs defined in the SQL/MX metadata.
Returns all schemas defined in the SQL/MX metadata.
Returns all object types supported by SQL/MX.
SQL Table Names
SQL Catalog and Schema
Names
The ODBC driver uses SQL_ATTR_METADATA_ID to
determine whether to upshift a table name. This applies for
catalog API to SQLTables, SQLPrimaryKey, and
SQLStatistics. This does not apply to SQLColumns.
