Hi,

Few questions:

- Is this an installation on Windows ?

- Is the DSN the one automatically created by DataFabric Manager ?

- Or is it a DSN the customer created ?

If it is the one created by DataFabric Manager, it should get updated automatically during software upgrade. There is no need to delete and recreate the DSN.

Thanks,

Raj.
