The import-system.sh command is used to import a system from one Teradata Fabric cluster to another. Both clusters must be running both Teradata Fabric Manager version 02.11.00.00 or later and the system being imported must be running tdqg-node version 02.11.00.00 or later.

Run the import-system.sh command from one of the Teradata Fabric Managers in the same cluster you want to import the system into.

When running the import-system.sh command, you are prompted to provide the following information:

  • Hostname and credentials to the Teradata Fabric Manager instance where the system to import resides
  • Name of the system to import
  • Designate if the importing cluster becomes the primary or secondary cluster for the newly imported system
