Understanding and Using the ODBC Drivers

DataDirect ODBC drivers can be used with the Connector for ODBC. These include the DataDirect Sybase, Oracle, Informix, DB2, and SQL Server ODBC wire protocols. HCL Enterprise Integrator (HEI) and Domino Enterprise Connection Services (DECS) support the supplied HCL-branded DataDirect ODBC driver.

To specify and use one of the DataDirect ODBC driver pack drivers with your Connector for ODBC, you must first configure the driver and assign it a data source name (DSN).

Note: DataDirect drivers are installed on the IBM i platform by the HCL Domino installation program.

For IBM i Users

To use the Connector for ODBC on IBM i, you must have 5722SS1 Option 33 IBM i Portable Application Solutions Environment (Pase) installed. Pase is only supported on certain hardware models.
