Specify the ODBC driver setup for the datastore database which in this case, will store your VSAM files:

Open the .odbc.ini configuration file and add a data source entry for the datastore database which in this case, will store your VSAM files:

[PG.VSAM]
Driver = <driver-name>
Servername = <server-name>
Port = <port-no>
Database = VSAM

where:

<driver-name>
Specifies the name of the driver as configured in the odbcinst.ini file; in the example above, that would be PostgreSQL .
<server-name>
Specifies the name of the server on which the database instance resides.
<port-no>
Specifies the port on which the database is listening, typically 5432.
VSAM
