OpenLink JDBC to ODBC Bridge Driver (Lite Edition) Pre-Installation Requirements
Pre-Installation Requirements for Mac OS X Clients
DBMS Requirements
- Your target database must be ODBC and SQL compliant.
- You must possess enough knowledge to establish an ODBC connection to this database using third-party or native ODBC drivers.
Software Requirements
- You must possess third-party or native drivers that connect to your target database. A client portion of these drivers must be installed on the same machine as OpenLink's Lite drivers.
- You need to ensure that you have a functional JVM (JAVA installation). You can obtain this software from Sun Microsystem's http://www.java.com Website.
Configuration Requirements
- You will need to ensure that your environment is configured to promote connectivity using your third-party or native ODBC driver. OpenLink Product Support can provide minimal assistance in this area. Ideally, you will use your drivers to create a System Data Source Name for greater compatibility with OpenLink needs.
- You must know the exact name of one or more third party or native Data Source Names that connect to your target data source.
