Add Multiple Directory Services to TDGSS | Teradata Vantage - Completing the <LdapConfig> Configuration Change - Advanced SQL Engine - Teradata Database

After you complete the editing of the TDGSS configuration file to include the <LdapConfig> section, you should test the configuration before committing the configuration on the Teradata Vantage system or Unity server.

1. On the Vantage system (or Unity server), run the run_tdgssconfig utility to update the TDGSSCONFIG GDO with the new version of the <LdapConfig>.

   /opt/teradata/tdgss/bin/run_tdgssconfig

2. Use the tdgssauth utility to test the new <LdapConfig> to verify that users from each service can be authenticated.
   1. Specify a directory user and the necessary options using tdgssauth -u dir_user .

      See Working with tdgssauth.

   2. Check the output.
   3. If the authentication fails, make the necessary configuration changes and rerun steps 1 through 3 until the authentication succeeds.
3. Run tpareset to activate the changes in the TDGSS configuration.

   tpareset -f "use updated TDGSSCONFIG GDO"
