Just to clarify, you need a server definition and a library for ODBC.
LI

A is interesting too, but I think C covers it better.
KA
Kasandra 10 months ago
It's definitely C, you need both the server and library.
KE

Wait, are we sure about C? Sounds a bit complicated.
WA

I thought it was just B, seems simpler that way.
SH

I’m confused about whether we need just the ODBC data source definition or something more. I thought there was more to it than just that.
GE
German 11 months ago
I feel like option C sounds right because it mentions both the server definition and the library, which seems to align with what we studied.
CR
Cristy 12 months ago
I remember practicing a question about ODBC sources, and I think it involved defining a library too, but I can't recall the exact details.
TH

I think we need to register a server definition that points to the ODBC data source, but I'm not entirely sure if that's all we need.
LE
Lennie 1 year ago
I've got a good feeling about option B. Registering just the ODBC data source definition seems like the most straightforward approach.
KY
Kyoko 1 year ago
I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll need to review my notes on ODBC data source registration to make sure I understand the process.
DO
Dortha 1 year ago
I've seen questions like this before. I'm pretty sure the answer is C - registering a server definition and a library to access the ODBC data source.
JE

Okay, let's see. I think it has something to do with registering the ODBC data source, but I'm not sure about the details.
SI
Sina 1 year ago
Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think through the options carefully.

Wait, is this a trick question? What if the answer is 'All of the above, plus a dance routine and a complimentary bag of chips'?

D) a table pointing directly to the ODBC data source? Really? That just sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. I'm sticking with B).

B) I agree, sticking with just the ODBC data source definition seems safer.

B) only an ODBC data source definition

I'd go with A) a library that will use a SASIACCESS engine to a specific database. Gotta love those SAS engines, am I right?

D) a table pointing directly to the ODBC data source could be useful too.
ED

I think C) a server definition that points to the ODBC data source and a library accessing this server definition is also important.
SH

I agree, A) a library that will use a SASIACCESS engine to a specific database is the way to go.
EM

Hmm, I'm leaning towards C) a server definition that points to the ODBC data source and a library accessing this server definition. Seems like the most comprehensive option.
KA

↳ replying to Emmanuel
Definitely, it's important to have a clear server definition to access the ODBC data source.
KE
Kenneth 1 year ago
↳ replying to Emmanuel
That makes sense, it ensures the connection between the server and the ODBC data source is established.
RE

I agree, it covers all the necessary components for registering metadata for an ODBC data source.

I think it's C) a server definition that points to the ODBC data source and a library accessing this server definition.
TR
Trina 2 years ago
I'm not sure, but I think it might be A, as we need to specify the SASIACCESS engine for the ODBC data source.
HE
Henriette 2 years ago
I agree with Tandra, because registering a server definition and a library accessing it makes sense.
TA

I think the answer is C.
