The Viewpoint portlets available for monitoring in the VantageCloud Lake environment are specifically designed to monitor the primary cluster. It's important to note that these portlets do not currently support monitoring of the compute cluster, and OFS Storage is not included in the monitoring capabilities for VantageCloud Lake.

When adding the primary cluster of VantageCloud Lake to the monitoring system, the process is similar to adding any other Teradata systems. For more detailed instructions on this procedure, you can refer to the Teradata® Viewpoint User Guide.

During a Blue/Green upgrade, the behavior of BYOVP remains consistent as there are no changes in the Sessions Manager's public IP address. The following Viewpoint portlets have been verified for compatibility with the VantageCloud Lake environment

Session Management

The QueryGrid is a native cloud component on the VantageCloud Lake architecture. So, BYOVP for VantageCloud Lake does not support QueryGrid Query Monitoring.

System Overview

MSS (Metric streaming service) offloads all the RSS data to S3 buckets. So, the Elastic Performance on Demand (EPOD) functionality does not work on the VantageCloud Lake

Trends

The portlets cannot monitor any DBQL query logging metrics. They also cannot monitor the following RSS metrics:
  • Average Memory Available
  • CPU/Disk Ratio
  • FSG Cache Miss
  • Index Ratio
  • Logical MB/Sec
  • Minimum Memory Available
  • Parallelism
  • Read I/O
  • Total AMP CPU
  • Total Node CPU

Workload Management Supported

TASM rulesets may be applied to Primary Cluster workloads only. The architectural changes in a VantageCloud Lake may obsolete some workload management strategies. See Managing Your Workloads for more details.

By default, the administrator logins (TDWM user) are disabled on VantageCloud Lake. To use Workload Management, enable the administrator login for TDWM user.

Utilities
The VantageCloud Lake Console already has the SQL Client to run the queries of VantageCloud Lake Environment. So, the SQL Scratchpad can be alternative.

Applications Supported Data Labs
As part of the BYOVP, you can bring your own Data Lab to lake (BYODL). Data Labs portlet including the existing DataLabs API (with API Extensions) supports only for the primary cluster of the VantageCloud Lake. You can perform the following actions for Data Labs using the Viewpoint portlet:
  • Provisioning, configuring, and editing lab groups and labs
  • Users and roles accessing to the lab
  • Granting access permissions to view reports
  • Teradata user or role generating reports
  • Generating verified reports by lab groups
  • Getting lab group access information in lab details

Provisioning and configuring lab groups, deleting, and editing a lab, increasing, or decreasing Lab sizes, and generating reports with verified REST APIs.
