Hi,
If we change uvodbc.config and .odbc.ini in DS Home directory,
do we need to restart DataStage Server?

No

In theory there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is.

You don't need to restart DataStage after changing .odbc.ini and/or uvodbc.config - however you may need to refresh the view in any already-connected client, or re-connect the client, so that they can pick up the new entries. The Import Table Definitions mechanism will always re-read these files, so does not need the view to be refreshed.
