Using the text editor

StepsTo create a service or additional services

  1. Open the Access Service Library configuration file dcany.cfg.

  2. Create a section for each new service and then add:

    • The service name, in brackets

    • Required properties below the service name, grouped in the {ACS Required} subsection

    • Property value overrides listed below the service name, grouped by subsection

  3. Save the file.

  4. Stop the server, and then restart it to implement the changes.

  5. Enable a client machine to connect to a new access service.

    Enter the access service name in the sql.ini configuration file on Windows NT machines or the interfaces file on UNIX client machines.

    For instructions about editing the sql.ini or interfaces file, see the Enterprise Connect Data Access Installation Guide for UNIX and the Enterprise Connect Data Access Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows.

    NoteIf you choose to use service name redirection, make an assigned service name entry in the service name redirection file. For more information, see the Enterprise Connect Data Access and Mainframe Connect Server Administration Guide.
