Analytical Ecosystem
To monitor the Teradata systems managed in a Business Continuity Manager environment, use the tdbcmgmt user. By default, this user is created automatically on a Teradata system when it is first added. The password for this user is initialized to a random string (up to 32 characters long, consisting of alphanumeric and special characters), and stored in tdwallet for security. It is not necessary for the DBA or Operator to know the password.
  1. If it is necessary to update this password, run one of the following commands:
    Option Command
    To set the value of the tdbcmgmt password to a known value At the bcmadmin prompt, run TDBCMGMT PASSWORD SET <new_password> [REASON '<reason>']
