Installing the ODBC driver for Windows silently
You can silently install the ODBC driver from the command line. In a silent installation, default values are used.
Procedure
From the appropriate directory on your system, run the nzodbcsetup
executable file with the -i silent option.
The following example uses the C: drive:
C:\>nzodbcsetup.exe -i silent
The installation program does the following processing:
- Installs the Netezza Performance Server ODBC driver. A 32-bit driver on a 32-bit system and a 64-bit driver on a 64-bit system are installed in the \WINDOWS\system32 folder. If you are installing both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers on a 64-bit system, the 32-bit driver is installed in the \WINDOWS\SysWOW64 folder.
- Places entries in the Windows registry to add your selected ODBC driver to the driver list.
- Places entries in the Windows registry to add the NZSQL data source to the data source list.
What to do next
Configure the data source and driver. See Configuring the ODBC data source and driver (Windows).
