If the TARA server is unresponsive, add ulimit -c 131072 to the /etc/init.d/tdtaraserver script to produce core files. Doing so kills the process ID to obtain the core file:

case "$1" in
  start)
    echo -n 'Starting taraserver '
    ulimit -c 131072
    if [ $KTYPE -eq 0 ]; then

Core files are located in /opt/teradata/tara/server/config:

For example:

lussdgsc-bar00:/opt/teradata/tara/server/config # ls -l
total 1690
drwx------  2 taraserver root       176 Aug 28 11:24 .
drwxr-xr-x  7 root       root       168 Aug  9 15:13 ..
-rw-------  1 taraserver users 13176832 Aug 28 11:01 core.8849
-rwxr-xr-x  1 taraserver root       901 Aug 13 14:57 defaults
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root       root       430 Aug 10 15:16 defaults_original
For the core ulimit setting to take effect, restart the TARA server.

If core files do not provide an answer, look at the TARA server log. See Step 2: Change the Verbosity of the TARA Server Log.
