Restricted DBC database views can be created to limit access to information. Restricted DBC views are identified by the suffix X and called X views.
Beginning with Teradata Database 12.00.00, each system view in the DBC database includes a view that supports Unicode®. All Unicode® system views are identified by a suffix, V or VX, when a restricted Unicode® view is used.
Note: To learn more about X views, V views, and VX views, see Data Dictionary and Database Administration.
See “Preferences” on page 140 to access the Use X views options.
Additional Restricted views required by Teradata Index Wizard must be created in Teradata Database. Teradata Index Wizard provides options to create restricted views from a script file. There are five versions of the script file:
The script files are located in the Teradata installation folder. For example:
C:\program Files\Teradata\Teradata Index Wizard 15.10\DBCXViews141.bteq
1 Invoke Teradata Index Wizard 15.10.
2 Select Tools > Options > Preferences > General.
3 Select Use X views (DBC and QCD).
A confirmation message appears.
4 Click Yes to create the restricted views.
Click No to continue using non-X views.
