An install configuration file can be provided to change the default behavior during install. The name of the file is ttu_install.cfg, and it should be placed in /var/opt/teradata. We support the following options (case insensitive):
  • InstallDir=prefix
  • ShareLibs=yes|no
  • updateETC=yes|no

If the ttu_install.cfg file is not found in /var/opt/teradata, then the value for both those options will default to yes.

If the ttu_install.cfg file is not found in /var/opt/teradata, then the value for both those options will default to no.
