Installation of the ODBC/MX Client
Components of the MX connectivity service
To fully install all components of connectivity service, you must install the following:
•
MXCS server components on a NonStop system.
•
ODBC/MX client interface on any Windows machine.
Installing the Client Components
The client components must be installed on each client workstation that needs access
to SQL/MX. Although you can download the installation file directly from the installation
subvolume, in large installations, it may be more efficient to download the installation
file to an internal web location for easier deployment to all client workstations. The
client installation includes the following:
Microsoft ODBC 3.5 core components
ODBC/MX driver components
MS Code Page translator
HTML Help core components
You can install the client components on the same workstation as NSM/web or on a
different workstation.
Installing and Running ODBC/MX version 2.0 Concurrently With
MXCS Version 1.8
You can install and run ODBC/MX version 2.0 concurrently with MXCS version 1.8
with the following restrictions:
•
A NonStop ODBC/MX version 1.8 client will not work with a NonStop MXCS
version 2.0 service, nor will a NonStop MXCS version 1.8 service work with a
NonStop ODBC/MX version 2.0 client.
•
You must create different client data sources to connect to different versions of an
MXCS server.
