Note: CONNX has been tested or certified with the following TCP/IP software products on OpenVMS: UCX 3.0 and above, Multinet, TCPware, and Pathworks.
Note: OLE DB/ODBC providers use third-party data providers which have their own hardware and network requirements and are installed on the client machine.
Important: The server requirements are dictated by the third-party driver selected for operation.
Important: Place the license files on a server that allows for the same number of simultaneous connections as the license count purchased.
CONNX requires that all computers using the CONNX ODBC driver use the same license path for all licensed databases. Do not choose a local hard drive for a license path unless you are using CONNX on a single computer or if you are using CONNX over a remote TCP/IP connection or Remote Active Service (RAS). If two or more computers have a license path that points to a local hard drive, the connection to CONNX may be rejected.
In previous versions of CONNX, if an N-tier license was being run on a machine that was connected to a remote desktop using an application such as PC Anywhere, Terminal Services, or Remote Desktop, an error appeared stating that the license count had been exceeded. This has been changed so that the license now reverts automatically to a database license.
CONNX periodically checks to make sure all computers using CONNX are configured to the same license path. If CONNX determines that one or more computers are not configured to the same license path, the connection may be denied.
