If you will access a remote server using Component Integration Services, you must specify the appropriate server class for the remote server. The server class tells Component Integration Services how to connect to the remote server. The server classes are:
sql_server – indicates that the remote server is Sybase Adaptive Server, or Microsoft SQL Server.
local – the local Adaptive Server. There can only be one.
direct_connect – functionally the same as server class access_server. access_server is supported for backward compatibility.
db2 – indicates that the remote server is a gateway to DB2 or DB2-compatible databases. The Sybase Net-Gateway and MDI Database Gateway for DB2, AS/400, and SQL/DS are in this category.
generic – indicates that the remote server is an Open Server application that conforms to the interface requirements of a Generic Access Module, as described in OmniSQL Server Generic Access Module Reference Manual. The OmniSQL Server Access Module for Rdb and OmniSQL Server Access Module for Informix are two examples of remote servers in this class.
sds – is functionally the same as direct_connect. It is listed for future implementation. If you select sds, the property sheet lists direct_connect.
Specifying the server class
Select the remote server icon, then select File | Properties.
On the General tab, select a server class from the drop-down list.
