Managing Connections

Restriction: This topic applies to Windows environments only.

To successfully migrate DB2 databases and applications to SQL Server, you must establish a connection to both databases. You can do this using the Manage Connections tool, or a combination of other connection utilities.

For ODBC connectivity, HCOSS supports SQL Server Native Client 10.0 and 11.0, including the ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server. We recommend that you always use the most recent version of this driver available when creating new connections. We also recommend that you upgrade existing connections to use the most recent driver when possible. HCOSS detects the ODBC driver version at startup, when creating, editing, and repairing SQL Server system or user connection types, and provides the option to upgrade where appropriate.
