The DISPLAY SESSION command displays information for a specified session.
Syntax
{ DISPLAY | DI } { SESSION | SE } [ LONG | LON ] { ses_list | { USER | US } user_name }
Syntax Elements
- LONG
- LON
- Displays additional detailed information for the specified sessions.
- ses_lst
- One or more session numbers indicating the sessions for which information is to be displayed.
- user_name
- The name of the user account for which you want to display session information.
Usage Notes
- Before using the DISPLAY SESSION command, you must select the host group from which the session is running using the SELECT HOST command. For information, see SELECT HOST.
- By default, the Teradata system displays the short-form report containing the following information:
- User Name
- IP address
- TCP socket number
- State
- Event
- Action
- Partition
- Authentication method
- Client Security Policy
- Proxy Security Policy
- Recoverable Network Protocol
- The Authentication field has the values shown in the following table:
The value... Indicates... Database that the database provided the authentication method. This was the normal logon method before the implementation of single sign on.TDGSS-returned method an authentication method returned by the Teradata Generic Security Service (TDGSS). For more information on TDGSS, see Teradata Vantageā¢ - Analytics Database Security Administration, B035-1100.
- The long-form report gives a detailed connect display for a selected session. It includes all of the information displayed by the default short format, and adds the following information:
- The Account associated with the User Name, if any.
- Teradata system mailbox information.
- I/O statistics for the session.
- The authentication negotiating mechanism used, if any.
The long-form report is useful for field service personnel when diagnosing gateway problems.
- For information on the descriptions of the valid states, events, and actions for the DISPLAY SESSION command, see Session States, Events, and Actions.
To display a session, do the following:
- To select a host group (for example, host group 52), type:
se host 52
The Teradata system displays the following:
52>
- To display a session (for example, session 1040), type:
di se 1040
- To select a host group (for example, host group 52), type:
Example: Displaying session information
To display session 1040 in the default (or short) form, type:
> di se 1040gtwglobal displays the following output:
