Installation of the ODBC/MX Client

HP NonStop ODBC/MX Driver for Windows—527888-004

2-2

Installation Requirements

•

Once an application connects to a driver of a particular version, it must always

connect to a driver of that version, even if the application disconnects. To change

to a driver of a different version, the application must exit and be restarted.

Installation Requirements

Step 1: Download and Run the Installation File

1. Turn off all other applications running on the client workstation.

2. Create a temporary client installation folder on the client workstation; for example:

C:\ODBCTEMP. This creates a space in which to download the installation file and

makes it easier to delete when you are finished with the installation.

3. From the client workstation, use FTP to download the TDMODBC file from the

ZMXODBC installation subvolume (in binary format).

4. Rename the TDMODBC file; for example: TDMODBC.EXE.

5. Double click TDMODBC.EXE; this starts the InstallShield, described in Step 2.
