ODBC (64 bit) and W2008R2 SP1 64bit

Post by ron.visser »

HMON ver 8.82
Agent ver 4.12
Server to test = W2008 R2 SP1 64bit

Hostmonitor can't resolve correct ODBC driver using an agent

Installed is the odbc driver from Oracle.
Answer from Agent

RMA: 301 - [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Applicatio

PS:
As far as I know, Microsoft does not have a 64 bit version of the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle.

Where do you see a bug?
Quote from the manual
====================
HostMonitor/RMA is 32-bit application, however it can be used on Windows x64 Edition running on x86-64 (AMD64) systems (not on Itanuim/IA-64). E.g. you can start HostMonitor on Windows XP Professional x64 Edition or Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition.

If you are using Windows x64 Edition and you want to setup ODBC Logging or ODBC test method, you should setup ODBC datasources using 32-bit ODBC Data Source Administrator (e.g. C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe).
====================
As far as I know, Microsoft does not have a 64 bit version of the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle.
You don't need 64bit version of the driver for HostMonitor or RMA. You need 32bit version of the driver.
