ESRI Products connecting to ArcSDE (application server and direct connections)

If you connect to ArcSDE 9.3.1 Service Pack 1 from ArcGIS 9.3.1, you must install the corresponding 9.3.1 Service Pack 1 for your client product. The client updates contained in ArcSDE 9.3.1 Service Pack 1 are also included in ArcGIS 9.3.1 Service Pack 1. This is necessary to maintain version compatibility between the client and the server applications.

If you make a direct connection from a 9.3.1 client to an earlier release ArcSDE geodatabase, you need to install the ArcGIS Pre-9.3 geodatabase direct connect drivers.

If you connect to ArcSDE 9.3.1 using ArcInfo Workstation 9.3.1 please follow the steps below to install this Service Pack to your ArcInfo Workstation 9.3.1 software installation location:

    UNIX

    1. Before you start, make sure you have write access to the installation directory then download the appropriate compressed tar file to that location:
