IBM App Connect Enterprise, Version 11.0.0.2 Operating Systems: Windows, Linux


Updating ODBC definitions when you migrate to IBM App Connect Enterprise Version 11.0

Before you migrate an integration server or integration node, create ODBC definitions for databases and specify appropriate database drivers for IBM® App Connect Enterprise Version 11.0.

About this task

The database drivers that are supported by IBM App Connect Enterprise Version 11.0 might be at a later version than the drivers used by previous versions.

Follow the instructions that are provided for your operating system:

Windows systems
Change the ODBC connection definitions:
  1. Open the ODBC Data Source Administrator window.
  2. Open the System DSN page.
  3. For each Oracle and Sybase database that is accessed by the integration node, compare the ODBC driver against the entries that are listed in the following table. If the ODBC driver does not match, you need to associate the data source name with the new ODBC driver by using the following instructions:
    1. Delete the data source by clicking Remove.
    2. Re-create the data source with the new ODBC driver by clicking Add.

    The following table displays the name of the new ODBC driver for each database management system (DBMS).

    DBMS IBM App Connect Enterprise Version 11.0 ODBC driver name
    Sybase IBM App Connect Enterprise 11.0.0.n - DataDirect Technologies 64-BIT Sybase Wire Protocol
    Oracle IBM App Connect Enterprise 11.0.0.n - DataDirect Technologies 64-BIT Oracle Wire Protocol
    where n is the level of the installed fix pack.
Change the XA resource manager definitions:
  1. Open the Properties window of the integration node queue manager by using the WebSphere® MQ Services snap-in.
  2. Open the Resources page.
  3. For each Oracle and Sybase database that participates in a global unit of work that is coordinated by the integration node queue manager, change the contents of the SwitchFile field. For changes to the switch file configuration to take effect, you must restart the integration node queue manager.
    The following table specifies the entries you must change for each database management system (DBMS). install_dir represents the fully qualified path name of the directory in which you installed IBM App Connect Enterprise.
    DBMS Original entry New entry
    Oracle install_dir\server\bin\ukor8dtc22.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukor8dtc23.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukora24.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukora26.dll
    WBIMB\bin\ukora95.dll
    Sybase install_dir\server\bin\ukase22.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukase23.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukase24.dll

    or

    install_dir\server\bin\ukase26.dll
    WBIMB\bin\ukase95.dll
Linux systems
Change the ODBC connection definitions:
Create an ODBC definitions file by following the instructions in Connecting to a database from Linux and UNIX systems by using the IBM Integration ODBC Database Extender. Before you run the commands at the new service level, check that your ODBCINI environment variable points to the new file and not to the existing file. Check that ODBCSYSINI environment variable is set to point to the directory that contains your odbcinst.ini file.
Change the XA resource manager definitions:
To change the XA resource manager definitions, edit the queue manager configuration file (qm.ini) of the queue manager that is associated with the integration node. The qm.ini file is in the directory /var/mqm/qmgrs/queue_manager_name, where queue_manager_name is the name of the queue manager that is associated with the integration node.

In the XAResourceManager stanza for each Oracle and Sybase database that participates in a global unit of work that is coordinated by the integration node queue manager, change the entry for the switch file. For changes to the switch file configuration to take effect, you must restart the integration node queue manager.

The following table specifies the entries that you must change for each operating system and database management system (DBMS).

DBMS Original entry New entry
Oracle SwitchFile=UKor8dtc22.so

or

SwitchFile=UKoradtc22.so

or

SwitchFile=UKor8dtc23.so

or

SwitchFile=UKoradtc24.so

or

SwitchFile=UKoradtc26.so

Sybase (not supported on Linux on IBM z Systems®) SwitchFile=UKasedtc22.so

or

SwitchFile=UKasedtc23.so

or

SwitchFile=UKasedtc24.so

or

SwitchFile=UKasedtc26.so
SwitchFile=UKasedtc95.so
