OpenEdge Data Management: DataServer for ODBC
Connecting the DataServer : Connection guidelines
 

Connection guidelines

When you create a schema holder, you specify certain connection information, such as the physical and logical names for your ODBC data source and the user and password information. OpenEdge stores this information so that you do not have to provide it each time you connect. After you consider your security requirements, you connect a schema holder and then an ODBC data source.
