ASE ODBC Driver and OLE DB Provider Migration Technical - Sybase

When the primary server doesn’t response in the amount of time specified by LoginTimeout, the driver attempts to
connect to server2:port2, and so on, until it connects successfully or exhausts the list.
For information regarding the ASE Cluster Edition support refer to the New Features Open Server and SDK 15.0 for
Windows, Linux, and UNIX document, under ESD#12.
Server Name [secondaryserver/SecondaryServer]: The name or the IP address of the ASE server acting as a failover
server in an active-active or active-passive setup.
Server Port [secondaryport/SecondaryPort]: The port number of the ASE server acting as a failover server in an
active-active or active-passive setup.
Directory Service Information: This panel is used for alternate methods of determining the host and port for ASE
connectivity. This option allows for the use of an LDAP server or the interfaces file (SQL.INI for windows, interfaces
for LINUX).
URL [dsurl/DSURL]: The URL for the LDAP server, or the location to the interfaces file. Some examples are:
LDAP: ldap://hostport/dn[?attrs[?scope[?filter[?userdn?userpass]]]]
ldap://pvero-xp:389/dc=sybase,dc=com??one?sybaseServername=ase1252
Interfaces: file://[path][?][servicename]
file://C:\sybase\ini\SQL.INI
Service Name [dsservicename/DSServiceName]: The Service Name of the LDAP Sybase server object. The default is
an empty string.
User ID [dsprincipal/DSPrincipal]: The user name used to authenticate on the LDAP server, if the LDAP server does
not allow anonymous access. The principal can be specified in the DSURL as well.
Use Quoted Identifiers [quotedidentifier/QuotedIdentifier]: Specifies if ASE treats character strings enclosed in
double quotes as identifiers:
•0 = do not enable quoted identifiers (default)
•1 = enable quoted identifiers
Set ANSI Null [ansinull/AnsiNull]: Strict ODBC compliance where you cannot use “= NULL.” Instead, you must use
“IsNull.” Default is checked. Uncheck this if you use the “=NULL” in your SQL statements, especially the where clause.
(Default =1)
Enable Dynamic Prepare [dynamicprepare/DynamicPrepare]: When set to 1, the driver sends SQLPrepare calls to ASE
to compile/prepare. This can boost performance if you use the same query repeatedly. (Default =0)
Normalize Unicode Strings [normalizewcharparams/NormalizeWCharParams]: Under certain circumstances, when
the ASE is configured with “enable unicode normalization” set to 0, problems might occur with parameters set to TDS_
LONGBINARY. Setting this property to “1” will send the parameters as TDS_VARCHAR. Problem occurs with possible
error like:
“Attempt to insert NULL value into column ‘column name’, table ‘table name’; column does not allow nulls. Update
fails.”
Originally discovered with use of Microsoft Replication. (Default=0)
Cumulative Record Count [crc/CRC]: By default, the driver returns the total records updated when multiple update
statements are executed in a stored procedure. This count will also include all updates happening as part of any
triggers set on an update or an insert. Set this property to 0 if you want the driver to return only the last update
count. (Default = 1)
