Use dfdbconf and dfdbview for UNIX and Linux ODBC Connections

Follow these steps to create ODBC connections with required stored credentials in the UNIX and Linux ODBC operating environments:

Execute the following command:
```
install-path/bin/dfdbconf
```
Select a driver from the list of available drivers.
Set the appropriate parameters for the driver. The new data source is added to the default odbc.ini file, which is stored at install-path/etc.

Note: If you specify an alternate path in the environment variable ODBCINI, then the server ignores the default file and the new data source.

Note: You can also use dfdbconf to delete the data sources.
Add stored credentials to the data source by executing the following command:
```
install-path/bin/dfdbview -s data-source-name
```
Test the new data source by executing the following command:
```
install-path/bin/dfdbview data-source-name
```
If the connection succeeds, use the prompt to enter SQL commands to test the connection. If the connection fails, resolve the errors described in the error messages.
