Analytical Ecosystem
Teradata Alerts has limited interaction with the Analytics Database. The three components that interact with the Analytics Database are:
  • BTEQ alert actions
  • SQL alert actions
  • Alerts processed by the Teradata Viewpoint alert request data collector

Teradata Notification Service for Windows and Teradata Notification Service for Linux can execute BTEQ scripts. The version of BTEQ that is installed on the Windows Server or Linux Server must be compatible with the version of the Analytics Database that the BTEQ scripts are executing against.

Teradata Alerts running on the Viewpoint Server executes SQL alert actions using the Teradata JDBC driver. The queries entered by the administrator must be compatible with the Analytics Database where the queries will be executed.

Teradata Viewpoint alert request data collector monitors the dbcmngr.alertrequest and dbcmngr.monitorrequest tables for alert requests. Teradata Alerts supports the same versions of the Analytics Database that Viewpoint monitoring supports.
