  • You must have an active license.
  • If your license expired, contact Teradata Customer Support for assistance. This process can take two or more business days.
Complete the steps promptly to prevent the Teradata Database from shutting down.
  1. Contact your Teradata account team to purchase a license renewal.
  2. Switch to the root user environment.
    # sudo su -
  3. Run the revoke command from a Teradata Database node.
    tdc-revoke
    The revocation is complete when you see License has been revoked successfully.
  4. Verify the revoked TCores were credited back to your license.
    1. Log into the Teradata EMS server at https://slem.teradata.com/ecp.
    2. Click to expand Products.
    3. In the Available column, verify the quantity of available TCores has increased by the number of revoked TCores.
  5. Run the activate commands and follow instructions on the screen.
    sudo su -
    eval "$(grep "tdc-telm -m activate" /var/lib/cloud/instance/scripts/part-001)"
    echo $?
    Zero (0) means the activation was successful; a number other than 0 means an error occurred.
  6. Run tdlem-util -r on all nodes in the system:
    Option Command
    Run on one node to affect all nodes
    sudo su -
    pcl -s tdlem-util -r
    Run separately on each node
    sudo su -
    tdlem-util -r
  7. Log into the Teradata EMS server at https://slem.teradata.com/ecp and verify the quantity of available TCores decreased by the number of activated TCores.
  8. If the database shuts down between revoking and activating the license, restart the database.
