Before You Start Teradata WA: Setting Up the TDWM Database Objects

In releases prior to TTU14.0, the DIP script (DIPTDWM - TDWM Configuration) set up the TDWM database objects.

Starting with TTU14.0, the DIP script (DIPTDWM - TDWM Configuration) sets up the TDWM tables, but TWA itself handles setting up the required objects (procedures and macros) for client operations.

To setup the TWA objects

1 Connect to the TD 15.0 Database using the TWA application.

While connecting to the database, the TWA application checks whether the required TWA objects exist in the TDWM database or not. If they do not exist, TWA displays a prompt.

2 Do one of the following:

  • Click Yes to create objects for TWA database operations.
  • Click No to connect to the database without creating objects.
  • There is also an option to setup the TWA objects at any time by clicking Tools > twa dbs setup.
