I am using template from https://www.andersrodland.com/working-with-odbc-connections-in-powershell/
$Error.Clear();
function Get-ODBC-Data{
param(
[string]$query=$('select count(*) from [master].[sys].[table_name]'),
[string]$username='db username',
[string]$password='db password'
)
$conn = New-Object System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection
$conn.ConnectionString = "Server=IP_ADDRESS;Initial Catalog=DB_NAME;Uid=$username;Pwd=$password;"
$conn.open()
$cmd = New-object System.Data.Odbc.OdbcCommand($query,$conn)
$ds = New-Object system.Data.DataSet
(New-Object system.Data.odbc.odbcDataAdapter($cmd)).fill($ds) | out-null
$conn.close()
$ds.Tables[0]
}
$result = Get-ODBC-Data
Write-Host "Statistic: " $result[0];
Write-Host "Message: " $result[0] ;
exit 0
But I keep getting error: "Not Defined." or - Exception calling "Open" with "0" argument(s): "ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
Did try to replace hard coded IP address with SolarWinds inbuilt ${IP} variable as well but same error.
I think I am making some syntax error, specially on $conn.ConnectionString line.
Can I get some help in identifying what am I doing wrong?
