The Microsoft SQL Server wrapper library files are added to the federated server when you install the wrapper.
When you install the Microsoft SQL Server wrapper, three library files are added to the default directory path. For example, if the federated server is running on AIX®, the wrapper library files that are added to the directory path are libdb2mssql3.a, libdb2mssql3F.a, and libdb2mssql3U.a. The default wrapper library file is libdb2mssql3.a. The other wrapper library files are used internally by the Microsoft SQL Server wrapper.
If you do not use the default wrapper name when you register a wrapper, you must include the LIBRARY parameter in the CREATE WRAPPER statement and specify the default wrapper library file name.
The default directory paths and default wrapper library file names are listed in the following table.
| Operating system | Directory path | Library file name |
|---|---|---|
| AIX | /usr/opt/install_path/lib32/ |
libdb2mssql3.a |
| Linux | /opt/IBM/db2/install_path/lib32 |
libdb2mssql3.so |
| Solaris | /opt/IBM/db2/install_path/lib32 |
libdb2mssql3.so |
| Windows | %DB2PATH%\bin | db2mssql3.dll |
install_path is the directory path where the federated server is installed on UNIX or Linux.
