The REBUILD/RECOVERY PRIORITY command sets or displays a priority level for use by the Table Rebuild utility and a Teradata system recovery operation.

Syntax

{ REBUILD | RECOVERY } PRIORITY [ HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW ] ;

Usage Notes

Setting a priority applies to future and currently running operations. The PRIORITY command takes the following forms.

Both priorities are independent of each other and can hold different values at any period of time. That is, recovery initiated rebuilds will use recovery priority and not rebuild priority. If you type the command without specifying high, medium, or low, the current priority setting is displayed.

The REBUILD PRIORITY command applies to any Table Rebuild started from the console, automatic table rebuild due to disk error recovery, and MLOAD rebuild of target tables for non-participant online AMPs.

The REBUILD PRIORITY command sets a priority for the rebuild utility. You can select HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW level priority. If you do not explicitly set a priority, default rates exist and will be used. If you do not type a new priority, the current priority setting is displayed.

The RECOVERY PRIORITY command sets a priority for the Teradata system recovery operation. You can select HIGH, MEDIUM, OR LOW level priority. If you do not explicitly set a priority, the current priority setting is displayed. The priority settings are saved in the Recovery Status system table.
