Locating Crashdumps - Teradata Database - Teradata Vantage NewSQL Engine

For the most part, if you encounter a problem on your system that results in a crashdump, Teradata Vital Infrastructure will notify Teradata customer support if you have TVI installed on your system. Otherwise, you should contact the Teradata Support Center.

• Raw PDE crashdumps are saved to /var/opt/teradata/tddump.

  Teradata recommends that the TDTEMP and TDDUMP partitions be identified as /var/opt/teradata/tdtemp and /var/opt/teradata/tddump, respectively. You can use the dmpconfig utility to view or change the default locations. For more information on this utility, type dmpconfig -h.

• Crashdumps in table format are located at DBC.Crashdumps.Crash_YYMMDD_HHMMSS_NN.
• Crashdumps in stream format are located at /var/opt/teradata/tddump/pdedumps/stream .
