| LINUX / UNIX ODBC DRIVER MANAGER LIBRARY PATH | Directory path where the ODBC Driver Manager Library is installed. This field is applicable only for Linux/Unix operating system. For a default installation, the ODBC Driver Manager Library is available at /usr/lib64 and does not need to be specified. However, when UnixODBC is installed in for example /opt/unixodbc the value for this field would be /opt/unixodbc/lib. | ODBC_DM_Lib_Path |
| ODBCSYSINI | Directory path where the odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini files are located. This field is applicable only for Linux/Unix operating system. For a default installation, these files are available at /etc directory and do not need to be specified using this field. However, when UnixODBC is installed in for example /opt/unixodbc the value for this field would be /opt/unixodbc/etc. The odbcinst.ini file should contain information about the HANA ODBC Driver under heading [HDBODBC] or [HDBODBC32]. | ODBC_Sysini |
| ODBC DRIVER | Name of the user defined (installed) ODBC driver used for connecting HVR to the HANA database. If the ODBC driver is not specified in this field, then HVR will automatically load the appropriate driver for your current platform: HDBODBC (64-bit) or HDBODBC32 (32bit). | ODBC_Driver |
