Setting Additional ConfigurationΒΆ

The advanced driver configuration are described in the following section.

To set the advanced configuration, perform these steps:

  1. Open iODBC Administrator64 with Administrator Privileges. (sudo /Applications/iODBC/iODBC\ Administrator64.app/Contents/MacOS/iODBC\ Administrator64)

  2. Go to System DSN and select Qubole ODBC Driver DSN.

  3. Click Configure and the dialog is illustrated here.

  4. Enter the valid API Token.

  5. Change the DSI to the required one - (Hive, Presto or Spark).

  6. Create a keyword entry by clicking the + button. Add the MAX_CHAR_SIZE keyword and add a value if you do not want to use the default value, which is 100000.

    However, some tools require the maximum value to be set below a particular limit.

    Example: For Microsoft SQL Server, this value has to be set to 8000 or less than 8000.

  7. Add SCHEMA_NAME as a keyword and enter the schema name as its value, to filter to that schema while fetching metadata so that only the related TABL_SCHEM configured is exposed.

    Here is the example of the advanced configuration configured on a ODBC driver for Mac.
