Installing the Connector Using the DMG File

The Simba Netezza ODBC Driver is available for macOS as a .dmg file named Simba Netezza 1.0.dmg. The connector supports both 32- and 64-bit client applications.

To install the connector using the .dmg package:

  1. Double-click Simba Netezza 1.0.dmg to mount the disk image.
  2. In the installer, click Continue.
  3. On the Software License Agreement screen, click Continue, and when the prompt appears, click Agree if you agree to the terms of the License Agreement.
  4. Optionally, to change the installation location, click Change Install Location, then select the desired location, and then click Continue.
  5. Note:

    By default, the connector files are installed in the /Library/simba/netezzaodbc directory.

  6. To accept the installation location and begin the installation, click Install.
  7. When the installation completes, click Close.
  8. If you received a license file through email, then copy the license file into the /lib subfolder in the connector installation directory. You must have root privileges when changing the contents of this folder.

Next, configure the environment variables on your machine to make sure that the ODBC driver manager can work with the connector. For more information, see Configuring the ODBC Driver Manager.
