Issue/Introduction

Summary

 When configuring an ODBC Data Source on a UNIX OS to connect to an IBM DB2 Data Source, the 'db2wire.ini' data source template is used to configure the  'system_odbc.ini' file.  The template files are located in  <Siteminder_home>/db. 

The 'db2wire.ini' data source template is a basic template.  

Example:

[ODBC Data Sources]
SiteMinder Data Source=DataDirect 7.1 DB2 Driver

[SiteMinder Data Source]
Driver=/opt/CA/siteminder/odbc/lib/NSdb227.so
Description=DataDirect 7.1 DB2 Driver
Database=nete_database
IpAddress=nete_server
TcpPort=50000
Package=nete_package
PackageOwner=
GrantAuthid=PUBLIC
GrantExecute=0
IsolationLevel=CURSOR_STABILITY
DynamicSections=100
DMCleanup=2

 

 

The sample Data Source information includes the basic attributes necessary to establish a connection to the database.  Any additional features or settings supported by the ODBC server would require that the appropriate attribute be manually added to the Data Source.

Solution:

This is a list of all of the available Data Source attributes on the SQL Wire Protocol driver for DB2.
