Chili!Soft ASP 3.6 for IBM AIX and Chili!Soft ASP 3.6 for Linux include an ODBC driver that enables an ASP application to connect with a DB2 database. In addition, DB2 ODBC drivers for Sun Solaris and HP-UX are supported by Chili!Soft ASP 3.6, although they are not included with this product. When you install a DB2 ODBC driver for Sun Solaris or HP-UX, the Administration Console automatically detects it and enables you to configure a DSN in the same manner as you can with IBM AIX and Linux. For all platforms, you must use the catalogued name of the database for the DSN name when configuring a DSN for a DB2 database.
In order to configure DB2 database connections, the following software must be installed on the computer running the Chili!Soft ASP Server:
· IBM DB2 Client Application Enabler (CAE) for your operating system, version 2.1 or higher
· IBM DB2 Software Development Kit (DB2 SDK) for your operating system, version 2.1 or higher
In addition, you must load the database profile, as described next, in "Loading DB2 Profiles."
