Perform the following steps to move cache metadata related to datalabs of one Teradata Viewpoint system to another Teradata Viewpoint system.
- Transfer lab group users, lab databases, and lab group roles from the old Viewpoint system to the new/same Viewpoint system.If the migration is happening between same Teradata systems, ignore this step.
- Run the following command to shut down the DCS from the active cache database server:/etc/init.d/dcs stop
- Run the following dcsadmin command:/opt/teradata/viewpoint/dcs/bin/dcsadmin.sh
- Type help to find the exportdatalabs command.
- Run the exportdatalabs command.
- Select the source system.
- Verify the output to make sure the export is successful.Look for the Datalabs exported to tmp folder. For example, Data labs is exported to : /tmp/datalabs_Jo_TD_1720_1650361525765.json
- From the Monitored Systems portlet, verify the following:
- The Teradata system is present in the Monitored Systems portlet.
- The system is enabled.
- The Dictionary collector is enabled for the system.
- Run the following command to shut down the DCS from the active cache database server:/etc/init.d/dcs stop
- Run the following dcsadmin command from the active cache database server:/opt/teradata/viewpoint/dcs/bin/dcsadmin.sh
- Type help to find the importdatalabs command.
- Run the importdatalabs command.
- Select the target system.
- Provide the location of target json file.
- Verify the output to make sure the import is successful.Look for the Datalabs start importing to the system.For example,
Starting Data Labs import into system 'sdt46010-Target with Id : 16' No Validation errors found .... Datalabs are imported successfully from file path: /tmp/datalabs_Jo_TD_1720_1650361525765.json
On the source Viewpoint system:
On the target Viewpoint system:
