After deploying a DSC VM, you must log in to the VM and initialize the DSC.
-
From the Azure portal, note the following of the Viewpoint VM:
- The private IP address.
- If applicable, either the public IP or public DNS.
- Log on to the VM using the authentication type you chose when deploying the VM.
-
Switch to the root user environment.
# sudo su -
-
Initialize DSC on the VM, either interactively or non-interactively.
For either of the following options change the DSC repository password to the Azure VM ID.
Option Description Interactively - Run dsu-init without an argument
.# /opt/teradata/client/version/dsa/commandline/dsu-init
where version is the version of DSC you are initializing. - Enter the private-DNS of the Viewpoint VM to be used with DSC at the prompt to provide information for an internal Teradata Database repository that DSC uses to store its metadata.
Non-interactively - Run dsu-init with any of the optional arguments.
# /opt/teradata/client/version/dsa/commandline/dsu-init -v vp private-DNS
where:- version is the version of DSC you are initializing.
- vp private-DNC is the private-DNS of the Viewpoint VM to be used with DSC.
Automated scripts initialize DSC on the VM without further input from you.
- Run dsu-init without an argument
-
Obtain the DBC and DSUADMIN passwords.
The default setting of these passwords is only alphanumerics of this vmID.
-
Run vmuid.py.
# python /opt/teradata/client/version/dsa/commandline/vmuid.py
where version is the version of the DSC you are initializing. - Remove the dashes that resulted from running the script.
-
Run vmuid.py.
DSC is ready to use. The script sets the repository target group. The repository backup will be stored on the local machine at /var/opt/teradata/dsc/pathRepo. For information on how to configure systems, storage backup applications, and target groups for premium storage to run operational jobs, see
