Release: 7709

Primary OS: z/OS

Solution Date: 2021-02-11

Problem

When configuring a SQL Server adapter on a z/OS HFS-Deployed server, the CLASSPATH environment variable must reference the SQL Server JDBC Driver file (.jar). Is the .jar specific for z/OS or can any Unix file be used?

Solution

Since HFS-Deployed servers are Unix-based, a Unix version should be used.
