DLO upgrades are not automatically updating the Microsoft ODBC Drivers, due to historical issues applying these on WIndows 2008/2008 R2 systems.

Workaround:

To manually update the Microsoft ODBC Drivers, follow the procedure below; 

• Expand the DLO installation package (i.e. Veritas_Desktop_and_Laptop_Option_9.8.2_98204a_64-bit.zip)  used during the DLO upgrade.
• Navigate to the 'msodbc' sub-folder.
• Extract the msodbcsql_x86.msi  or  msodbcsql_x64.msi  file (use the version that matches the bit-level of your SQL server installation).
• Run the extracted  msodbcsql_xx.msi file and complete the installation to install the version of ODBC Drivers supported by that version of DLO.

The version of ODBC Drivers can be identified by reviewing the  Control Panel - Programs - Programs and Features  in the Operating System of the DLO Administration Server. 
In the list of installed Programs, look for 'Microsoft ODBC Driver ## for SQL Server' and check the Version column (i.e. 'Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server'  is version 17.10.5.1)
