We have one SQL Cluster server, i need to connect that DataBase using ODBC stage.

But I am getting the below mentioned error while connecting.

Please check the DSN code which i have mentioned and correct me if I am wrong.

Logon to your unix box where datastage is installed and try below command to check whether it is possible to connect to your sql server from datastage server or not.

telnet KM-ENT-SCL 1433

telnet IP ADDRESS OF(KM-ENT-SCL) 1433

Post the output of the above command thereafter.

No we are not able to connect. Please find below for the same

$ telnet KM-ENT-SCL
telnet: Unknown host KM-ENT-SCL


This is a Cluster SQL Server, it has only server name i.e KM-ENT-SCL, IP will not be static.

Have you tried using the full qualified host name? Is your resolve.config file is updated with name server details?
