Issue/Introduction

I've installed CA IDMS Server & CA IDMS VDBA on Windows 10 Enterprise, 64-bit.  CA IDMS Server is working (CA IDMS ODBC driver is installed and tested successfully).
 
After launching Visual DBA, the Nodes window displays < No Nodes>.  When I attempt to 'add node' and select system (yes) or user (no) DSN, I expect the ODBC administrator to launch.  Nothing happens.
 
So, VDBA will not 'find' the system DSN I manually created using the 64-bit ODBC administrator, nor will it allow me to 'add' a new node. 
 
The 64-bit ODBC admin shows the CA IDMS driver, version 17.00.36.00, file CAIIOD35.DLL dated 9/22/2011.
The 32-bit ODBC admin does NOT show the CA IDMS driver.  Is there a 32-bit IDMS ODBC driver I need to install?
 
 
 

Environment

Release : 18.0

Component : IDMS VDBA

Resolution

Visual DBA does not support 64bit, only 32 bit.
Had originally installed the 64bit ODBC driver. Once I re-executed 'setup' and installed the 32-bit version of CA IDMS Server, and created a 32-bit system dsn, Visual DBA now shows the 32-bit node.
