Typical configuration <strong>for</strong> a remote client to connect to a remote <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong><br />

Typical configuration <strong>for</strong> a remote client to connect to a<br />

remote <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong><br />

A typical configuration to connect a remote client to a remote <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> requires the following<br />

general tasks:<br />

• Configuring an ODBC data source<br />

• Starting a broker<br />

• Starting the schema holder to accept remote client connections<br />

• Connecting remote clients to the MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong> <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> broker<br />

This section highlights the basic procedure associated with each of these tasks.<br />

Configuring an ODBC data source<br />

An ODBC data source allows you to store in<strong>for</strong>mation about how to connect to a data provider.<br />

You use the ODBC <strong>Data</strong> Source Administrator to configure an ODBC source. Note that the<br />

<strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> license must be installed on the machine where the ODBC data source is configured.<br />

To configure an ODBC data source:<br />

1. In Windows, choose Start→ Control Panel→ Administrative Tools→ <strong>Data</strong> sources<br />

(ODBC) and select Systems DSN. The System DSN <strong>Data</strong> Source Administrator<br />

appears.<br />

2. Choose Add to add a data source with either the MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong> driver or an <strong>OpenEdge</strong><br />

branded ODBC Wire Protocol driver <strong>for</strong> MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong>. Proceed through the windows<br />

as they are presented to configure the data source, ensuring that the final test connection<br />

is successful.<br />

Starting a broker<br />

You can start the <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> broker, using various methods supported by the Unified Broker<br />

Framework, including:<br />

• The <strong>OpenEdge</strong> Explorer and Progress Explorer tool or mergeprop utility (<strong>for</strong> a Unified<br />

Broker)<br />

• The command line (<strong>for</strong> a probroker)<br />

The following example shows how to per<strong>for</strong>m this step from the command line. For in<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

about using the mergeprop utility, see <strong>OpenEdge</strong> Getting Started: Installation and<br />

Configuration. For in<strong>for</strong>mation about using the <strong>OpenEdge</strong> Explorer and Progress Explorer tool,<br />

see the “Starting and stopping a broker process from the <strong>OpenEdge</strong> Explorer and Progress<br />

Explorer and connecting a client” section on page 6–3, and see <strong>OpenEdge</strong> Getting Started:<br />

Installation and Configuration.<br />
