I tried to connect to ODBC with PowerBi using this string connection

Driver={Client Access ODBC Driver
(32-bit)};System=xxxxx.xxx.xxxxx;libraries=XXXXXX;naming=system;transaction
isolation=read committed;

Connection is done but i cannot see the right tables, i see 3 folders

EXPLOIT, INSTAL, QGPL

With different tables inside that are not tables when I connect with squirrel client, for example.

I know there are few elements to understand. Someone has any ideas?

UPDATE

I found out this three catalogs (EXPLOIT, INSTAL and QGPL) also in Squirrel, but I cannot see all others catalogs that I see in Squirrel. Could be any limited views? The user is always the same.

Seems that the default library list for your server does not include QSYS2. You can access most of the DB2 for i catalog files in QSYS2. Try this:

Select * from qsys2.systables;

That should show you all the tables your heart desires, as well as the schema (library) that the table resides in.

BTW, I don't think EXPLOIT, INSTAL, and QGPL are catalogs. They are likely libraries, well QGPL is definitely a system library supplied by IBM. The other two seem to be something provided by some 3rd party app.
