Using UNIX or Linux–based query tools through ODBC

UNIX or Linux platforms do not provide a standard ODBC driver manager, but you can use the driver manager emulation capabilities provided by the Sybase IQ ODBC driver to connect to the driver.

Tools (like Brio) that do not require extensive driver manager services can use the symbolic links provided with Sybase IQ to connect directly to the driver. Tools (like Whitelight) that require the presence of a driver manager may ship with a driver manager.

For information and recommendations about compatible driver managers available, see the documentation for the application.
