version 2.3.12                                   Sat 09 Jan 2021                                     odbcinst(1)

odbcinst  is  a  command-line  utility  allowing  users  who develop install scripts or packages for ODBC
       drivers to easily create or remove entries in odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini.

       The utility is part of the odbcinst component of unixODBC and complements the shared library of the  same
       name (libodbcinst).

/etc/odbcinst.ini
              Configuration file containing all  database  driver  definitions.  See  odbcinst.ini(5)  for  more
              information.

       /etc/odbc.ini
              Configuration  file containing system-wide Data Source Name (DSN) definitions. See odbc.ini(5) for
              more information.

       $HOME/.odbc.ini
              Configuration file containing user-specific Data Source Name (DSN)  definitions.  See  odbc.ini(5)
              for more information.

ACTIONS
       -i     Install a new OBJECT (by adding a section to a configuration file).

       -u     Uninstall an existing OBJECT (by removing a section from a configuration file).

       -q     Query ODBC configuration files and print available options for the specified OBJECT.

       -j     Print the current configuration of unixODBC, including paths to configuration files.

       -c     Call SQLCreateDataSource.

       -m     Call SQLManageDataSources.

       --version
              Display the program version.

   OBJECTS
       -d     The specified ACTION affects a driver (and thus the odbcinst.ini configuration file).

       -s     The  specified  ACTION  affects  a data source (and thus the user or system odbc.ini configuration
              file).

   OPTIONS
       -f FILEFILE is a template describing the configuration of the installed OBJECT (only valid  with  the  -i
              ACTION).

       -r     Act in the same way as for the -f OPTION, but take standard input as the template file.

       -n NAME
              Specifies the NAME of the OBJECT.

       -v     Disable all information, warning and error messages.

       -l     The specified data source is system-wide. This option is only valid when used with the -s OBJECT.

       -h     The  specified  data  source  is  user-specific.  This  option is only valid when used with the -s
              OBJECT.

       odbcinst returns zero on success and a non-zero value on failure.
