DCF Document ID: 1009949 - Tivoli Decision Support: AvailHelper cannot
connect to the datasource with Tivoli Decision Support (TDS).
Solution Desc:  AvailHelper cannot connect to the datasource with Tivoli
Decision Support (TDS).

Solution:  CAUSE: Using incorrect login. A userid of "sa" with a null
password was hard-coded into availHelper. A workaround would be to create
the "sa" user in the database with no password but this cannot be done with
Oracle and is undesirable in Sybase, the two databases supported by the
NetView Guides. This has been opened as apar/defect IX90004.

SOLUTION: A workaround is to use Oracle's or Sybase's ODBC driver instead of
Microsoft's ODBC drivers. this will prompt the user for the correct userid
and password. availHelper is intended to be run on a regular and scheduled
basis to update the tables so this is not optimal.

A fix is available from NetView Unix/NT support that allows the userid and
password to be specified on the command line of availHelper.

NOTE: See solution 1815 for information on IX90003, a similar problem with
the smartsetPopUnix utility.

SOLUTION # 22226
