Connect to a SQL server from AIX
Hello aix community,

After scouring the internet to find a step by step process, I've exhausted my efforts. Although I have learned a lot which brings me to this forum. I'm totally new and hope to ask the right questions.

What is the easiest way to connect to a SQL server from aix?

Researching out there, it seems that there are a couple of options:

Data Direct driver
FreeTDS
unixODBC

I hope someone here in the community can either point me in the right direction or share with me some resources and even a step by step if they have one

What am I'm trying to do?
Where I work, we use aix as our main os. We also have a SQL server that houses a lot of our data.

All I want to do is create an aix query that will allow me to connect to a SQL server. From that connection, I want to create an ODBC connect that will allow me to read a dbo table and then create a file with my criteria.

How can you help?
1. High level view of the sequence of steps I need to take to install a driver on aix and probably something on the SQL server side that will allow me to connect to a SQL server. What driver should I use to connect the two?

Thanks in advance for your help!

SNMP2_WALK(3)								 1							     SNMP2_WALK(3)

snmp2_walk - Fetch all theSNMPobjects from an agent

SYNOPSIS

       array snmp2_walk (string  $host, string	$community, string  $object_id, [string  $timeout = 1000000], [string  $retries = 5])

DESCRIPTION

       snmp2_walk(3) function is used to read all the values from an SNMP agent specified by the $hostname.

PARAMETERS

	      o $host
		- The SNMP agent (server).

	      o $community
		- The read community.

	      o $object_id
		-  If NULL, $object_id is taken as the root of the SNMP objects tree and all objects under that tree are returned as an array.	If
		$object_id is specified, all the SNMP objects below that $object_id are returned.

	      o $timeout
		- The number of microseconds until the first timeout.

	      o $retries
		- The number of times to retry if timeouts occur.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an array of SNMP object values starting from the $object_id as root or FALSE on error.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      snm2_pwalk(3) Example

	      <?php
	      $a = snmp2_walk("127.0.0.1", "public", "");

	      foreach ($a as $val) {
		  echo "$val
";
	      }

	      ?>
