If you use IBM DB2 OLAP Server on UNIX, you might encounter problems with DB2 OLAP Server after you install FixPak 2A of DB2 Universal Database V7. FixPak 2A, and later FixPaks, install new ODBC drivers that support UNICODE, but DB2 OLAP Server does not support these new drivers. The workaround for DB2 OLAP Server is to switch your ODBC files to point to the non-UNICODE ODBC drivers.
The non-UNICODE drivers have been renamed to add "_36" in their names. For example, for the Solaris Operating Environment, the driver libdb2.so was renamed to libdb2_36.so. For more information about changing ODBC drivers, see "Loading and Configuring ODBC for the SQL Interface" in Chapter 4, "Installing on AIX, Solaris Operating Environment, and HP-UX," of the OLAP Setup and User's Guide.
