Are you sure about this? The driver in question is specific to PASE.
What I mean is, you use it to connect from PASE to the built-in Db2.
Which is great if you are writing software that lives in PASE (and thus runs on the IBM i). This may be exactly what you are looking for, or it might be completely inadequate. For example, if you need to establish a connection from Excel on a user's PC to the Db2 on your IBM i, I am pretty sure the ODBC driver for PASE cannot help you do that. >> You would need to install the ODBC driver for Windows.

....

This is indeed bewildering to the uninitiated (like me) and severely under-documented. I eventually discovered this:

It turns out that I needed to start the QUSRWRK subsystem. I can't guarantee that you are experiencing the same problem I was, but this is something quick and easy to check. Good luck!

Thanks, I had found that (QUSRWRK needing to be up for SSHD to start) shortly after sending the email.
