Sadly, that is not always the way things work. In the real world, the AD RMS instance may have been initially installed on Windows Server 2003 using RMS 1.0 and was subsequently upgraded to 2008 R2 keeping all of the settings pretty much the same.

The Setup: Luckily, most of the concepts for migration are the same as what I documented in the previous two articles, so I am going to happily plagerize reuse the content in those articles to make something new.

The ODBC 3.8 features supported in Denali SNAC are: Streamed Output Parameters Support retrieving output parameters in parts via SQLGetData when the output parameter was bound using SQLBindParameter .
