ODBCLink Installation
Traditionally, ODBCLink/SE was included in patches for ALLBASE/SQL and IMAGE/SQL products. The
product structure has been changed in MPE/iX 6.0 Express 1, so that ODBCLink/SE is delivered as a
separate patch, resulting in more flexibility in upgrading the product.
When the ODBCLink/SE patch is applied, the following files are placed in ODBCSE.SYS:
HFSFILES.ODBCSE.SYS
I00IODBC.ODBCSE.SYS
HPREADME.ODBCSE.SYS
Stream I00IODBC.ODBCSE.SYS to install the new version of the product. The existing version of
ODBCLink/SE will not be upgraded until this job is streamed. I00IODBC.ODBCSE.SYS purges files belonging
to the existing version of the product from ODBCSE.SYS and installs new files. You may need to upgrade
ODBCLink/SE drivers on your client PCs to work with the new version of the server. For information on how
to upgrade your client PCs, see chapter 3 of ODBCLINK/SE Reference Manual.
Installing Non-HP (Third Party) Software
Consult the appropriate manuals for installation procedures for non-HP software products.
Problems can occur if you install third-party products on your system and rename system files to run the
software. Do not use the SYSFILE> RSPROG command in the SYSGEN utility to rename HP-supplied MPE/iX
system files. A renamed system file can corrupt your system during an update.
Use the SHOW command in SYSFILE to ensure that all HP-supplied MPE/iX system files retain their original
names. In the SHOW command output, system file names in both columns should be identical. If they do not
match, rename the files in the second column to the file names in the first column or use file equations to do
so.
