Usage Notes - Analytics Database - Teradata Vantage

For a complete description of these events, see “Parallel Database Extensions (PDE) Messages” Teradata Vantage™ - Database Messages, B035-1096.

If you want to examine more information than the macro displays by default, run a SELECT query on the DBC.SW_Event_Log table by providing the necessary criteria and targeting against the field “TEXT.” Here is an example of the SELECT query:

select * from dbc.Software_Event_Log
where Text like ’%restart%’
order by thedate, thetime
;

This causes the system to display all the available information for the events rather than a truncated version. In most cases, the latter version is sufficient to understand the nature of the problem.

When multiple messages are recorded over a very short time period, a BYNET event might have occurred forcing a node offline. If a node has been forced offline by the BYNET, you might need a Teradata field engineer to resolve the BYNET event.
