The following are prerequisites for using the Simple Connection Line Driver:
The Software AG Directory Server (ADI) must be installed on the client application. ADI-enabled clients are clients that use the Software AG Directory Server. For complete information about Software AG Directory Server, read Software AG Directory Server Documentation.
The Adabas SVC must be at version 7.1.2 or later.
Mainframe Adabas data conversion (Universal Encoding Support) services must be enabled for all databases.
When using the new Simple Connection Line Driver, Adabas conversion must be enabled for all the databases that will be called by requests coming through the driver. The Simple Connection Line Driver does not provide any data conversion itself. Adabas 7 Universal Encoding Support (UES) performs any required data conversion, such as converting data for Adabas buffers between different machine architectures (ASCII, EBCDIC, Big Endian, Little Endian). For information on enabling Adabas Universal Encoding Support, read Connecting to UES-Enabled Adabas Databases.
