ECDA 15.0 uses Sybase Software Asset Manager (SySAM) 2.0, which is supported for both ECDA options—ODBC and Oracle—and performs these security-related tasks:
Verifies that a valid license exists for the software being used. If a license is invalid, the service does not start and the DirectConnect server logs the license error message.
Allows Sybase customers with support contracts to access every Emergency Bug Fix (EBF) published before the end of their contract date.
If you download ECDA 15.0 software without a license,
SySAM 2.0 allows a 30-day grace period during which you can obtain
a valid license from the Sybase Product Download Center Web site.
For more information about SySAM 2.0, see the Enterprise Connect Data Access Installation Guide for your platform.
