The main installer for UNIX should be used to install the initial release. The main installer automatically installs all products and their dependencies in the correct order. Using an alternative method to do the installation requires you to manually install the products in the correct order.
The main installer supports installing silently so it should be used for deployment. The process is described in Silently Installing Teradata Tools and Utilities.
It is strongly recommended that the UNIX main installer is used to do the initial install of 16.10 but we still support installing using "swinstall" to install the TTU packages.
When installing individual products, they must be installed in the following order.
- Shared ICU Libraries for Teradata (tdicu)
- Teradata Wallet
- Teradata Call-Level Interface version 2 (cliv2)
- Teradata Data Connector API (piom)
- Any other products
If a pre-15.10.10.00 release is installed, the 16.10 installation will fail due to incompatible issues.
