MX Release 3.2.1 (H06.26+, J06.15+)

For details on attributes and settings in the ODBCDSN file, see Table 4.2.1, Format of the

ODBCDSN file, and, Example ODBCDSN file.

2. Move the ODBCDSN file to the $SYSTEM.SYSTEM folder.

The OSS ODBC/MX driver first searches for the ODBCDSN file in the same OSS directory

as the executable file of the process. If the ODBCDSN file is not available, the driver searches

for it in $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.

You can also save the ODBCDSN in the OSS location where the executable program is to

be run. If you save the ODBCDSN file in the OSS location, it will take precedence over the

ODBCDSN available at the $SYSTEM.SYSTEM location.

Configuring OSS ODBC/MX driver to use IPV6

The steps to configure OSS ODBC/MX driver to use IPV6 are:

1. Verify that the TCPIP DEFINE is set to use Ipv6, when the ODBC client is started.

2. Skip this step if you have set DEFINE to TCP6SAM process.

Use the following commands to delete the existing DEFINE and to create a new one:

• For deleting the existing DEFINE, use

delete define =TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME

• For adding a DEFINE with Ipv6, use

add define =TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME, class MAP, file “\KRYPTON.$ZSAM0”

where:

\KRYPTON is the machine name.

$ZSAM0 is the TCP6SAM process name.

For more information, see the TCP/IP Configuration and Management Manual.

3. Start the OSH/OSS process. If the process is started directly, the environmental variable

TCPIP_PROCESS_NAME must point to Ipv6 process.

4. Set the configuration variable Ipv6 to Enable in the ODBCDSN file.

Ipv6=Enable

NOTE: The variable, Ipv6 is case sensitive, where as Enable is not case sensitive.

Any error in the configuration process sets the driver to Ipv4, which is the default.
