Data Source Undefined error when working with ODBC Socket data sources in a multi instance configuration

(TechNote) ODBC Socket data sources are those that utilize the DataDirect SequeLink ODBC Socket Server services. When working in a multiple server instance configuration, each instance communicates with the same SequeLink services. When defining an ODBC Socket data source, the data source details are written both to ColdFusion MX's neo-query.xml file as well as the SequeLink swandm.ini file. If a data source with the same name is defined in two or more server instances, each instance will share the same details defined in swandm.ini. If you delete a data source from one instance, the corresponding information will be deleted from swandm.ini.
