The TARA server runs on a node called the TARA server host, which contains the Job Information Repository, the Script Repository, the TARA server logs, and the default configuration file. The TARA server is the executable that manages the data stored in the different repositories and controls the flow of data between the TARA server, the Teradata TARA GUI, and the NetBackup Access Module. On this host, the TARA server executable runs as a service. The TARA server package has no product dependencies.

The Teradata TARA GUI can run on any node connected to the TARA server; such a node is called the TARA GUI host. The Teradata TARA GUI acts as the user interface to the TARA system.

The NetBackup Access Module runs on a node called the NBUBAR host. The NBUBAR host must also be a BAR server node. The NetBackup Access Module is a Teradata-provided library file that interfaces with the ARCMAIN module that is installed on the BAR server node during a NetBackup backup or restore job.
