If you used a Manual or 1-Click launch, you must configure the Ecosystem Manager Server before completing this procedure.
Although you can configure this software yourself, we recommend contacting Teradata instead. See https://www.teradata.com/Consulting/Velocity.
Depending on how you launched your instance, use the following table to determine whether you need to complete this procedure.
Ecosystem | AWS CloudFormation | Manual | 1-Click |
---|---|---|---|
Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
You can use the Ecosystem Manager portlet to connect to a Teradata system on AWS or another deployment location.
- From the AWS Web Console, note the Private IP and either the Public IP or Public DNS of the Ecosystem Manager instance and the Viewpoint instance.

From your SSH client console, log on to the Viewpoint instance as ec2-user using the applicable AWS key pair.
# ssh -i private-key-file.pem ec2-user@public-DNS or public-IP

Switch to the root user environment.
# sudo su -
-
Change the directory and configure the Ecosystem Manager portlet.
# cd /opt/teradata/viewpoint/portlets/em-portlets/uiConfig.sh #./uiConfig.sh active-em-server standby-em-server em-password
where:- active-em-server is the DNS host name of the active Ecosystem Manager server.
- standby-em-server is the DNS host name of the standby Ecosystem Manager server. If you have not set up a standby Ecosystem Manager server, use the DNS host name of the active Ecosystem Manager server.
