The odbcinst.ini file

The odbcinst.ini file has entries for all the installed drivers on your computer.

Installed ODBC drivers use the odbcinst.ini sample file, which is located in $INFORMIXDIR/etc/odbcinst.ini. To create your odbcinst.ini file, copy the odbcinst.ini sample file to your home directory as $HOME/.odbcinst.ini (note the added dot at the beginning of the file name). Update this file when you install a new driver or a new version of a driver. The following table describes section items in the $HOME/.odbcinst.ini file.
