LDAP support in the IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI

The IBM® Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI supports the LDAP Database Directory. However, the LDAP cache is not saved to disk. The LDAP cache is an in-memory cache only and the DB2LDAPCACHE registry variable is ignored.

The IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI is not part of the IBM Data Server Client or the IBM Data Server Runtime Client. You must install and configure it separately; and it provides a subset of the functionality of either IBM Data Server client. It also supports LDAP Database Directory.

The steps for configuring the database application environment to enable LDAP when using the IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI are the same as for other scenarios, except that the DB2LDAPCACHE registry variable is ignored.
