What to install on the Linux SYBASE server

rjsosiSep 25 2019 — edited Oct 1 2019

Hi,

Were using Oracle 12c.

We want to create a Heterogeneous connection to a Sybase IQ db.

I was reading the instructions for connecting Oracle to Sybase on the the Burelson site.

Only there the Sybase db is on an XP server.

The steps involve installing the ODBC drivers on the Windows server the Sybase instance is on.

The other steps involve adding the Oracle tree to that server, setting the Global _Names parameter, creating and configuring the initdg4odbc.ora db and ,modifying the listener.

So for the steps we have to perform on the Redhat Linux server for our Sybase IQ db, I'm assuming the the steps will be the same except for the installation of the ODBC driver.

So my question is what's going to be different about the ODBC install portion of this set up process? What will I have to so instead?
