The SiteMinder ODBC data sources are configured using a system_odbc.ini file, which you can create by renaming db2wire.ini, located in policy_server_home/db, to system_odbc.ini. This system_odbc.ini file contains all of the names of the available ODBC data sources as well as the attributes that are associated with these data sources. This file must be customized to work for each site. Also, you can add additional data sources to this file, such as defining additional ODBC user directories for SiteMinder.
The first section of the system_odbc.ini file, [ODBC Data Sources], contains a list of all of the currently available data sources. The name before the "=" refers to a subsequent section of the file describing each individual data source. After the "=" is a comment field.
Each data source has a section in the system_odbc.ini file describing its attributes. The first attribute is the ODBC driver to be loaded when this data source is used by SiteMinder. The remaining attributes are specific to the driver.
Adding a DB2 Data source involves adding a new data source name in the [ODBC Data Sources] section of the file, and adding a section that describes the data source using the same name as the data source. You need to change the system_odbc.ini file if you create a new service name or want to use a different driver. You should have entries for the DB2 driver under [SiteMinder Data Source].
Again, to configure a DB2 data source, you must first create a system_odbc.ini file in the policy_server_home/db directory. To do this, you need to rename db2wire.ini, located in policy_server_home/db, to system_odbc.ini.
Note: policy_server_home specifies the Policy Server installation path.
