This step searches for all occurrences of the vconfig.gdo file in the system. The discovered vconfig.gdo information reflects the configuration created the last time Configure Teradata Vantage was run on the system. This information becomes part of the system configuration model.
Normally this step runs automatically and requires no user interaction. However, an exception condition exists if the GDO Info step discovers multiple versions of the vconfig.gdo file in the system. In this case, a list of the different versions found appears and you are asked to select the version to be used. Each found version is listed with the node name where it resides, the date and time it was created, the file size in bytes, and the checksum value.
