If you need to insert from an Adaptive Server Enterprise database to a Sybase IQ database, or you want to connect using iqisql, each server must have an entry in the interfaces file on the client computer. Interfaces file entries, also called server objects, also simplify database start-up.
Use iqdsedit (IQ Directory Services Editor) to create entries in the interfaces file. You must be the owner of the Sybase home directory (%SYBASE%) to run iqdsedit.
Adding server objects also simplifies connections to servers from Sybase Central.
