Use the following steps if you do not intend to use connection strings, but instead create ODBC data sources to access datastore databases.
There are a number of different driver managers that you can use to configure an ODBC data source. These instructions are carried out using unixODBC. If you are using a different driver manager, consult the vendor instructions for creating data sources.
(This may differ depending on the version of Azure you are running.)
[ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server] Description=Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server Driver=/opt/microsoft/msodbcsql17/lib64/libmsodbcsql-17.2.so.0.1 UsageCount=1

The following is an example of an .odbc.ini configuration file contains data sources for a local MSSQL database instance with two datastores. It also includes the mandatory data source for the master database.
[AZ.MASTER] Driver = ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server Server = localhost Database = master [AZ.VSAM] Driver = ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server Server = localhost Database = MicroFocus$SEE$Files$VSAM [AZ.SEQFILES] Driver = ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server Server = localhost Database = MicroFocus$SEE$Files$SEQ
