By default, your DataServer for ODBC broker instances are defined with a controlling NameServer and are provided with a default Data Service. Progress Software Corporation recommends using a NameServer configuration at all times. In such cases, the DataServer client's initial connection is to the NameServer. However, you can alternatively connect the DataServer directly to the broker instance by setting the
-DataService value to
none in the connection parameters of your schema holder. If you will always use a
-DataService value of
none, you should remove the controlling NameServer from your broker instance definition. For more information about connecting the DataServer to the NameServer and the broker, see
Starting and stopping a broker process from the Progress Explorer and connecting a client. For more information about the NameServer's role in a configuration, see the
