Use the Set Target Level Emulation dialog box to define RAS, cost parameters, cost profiles, and Maps. The Set Target Level Emulation dialog box can be accessed from either the main window or from the Import window.

This procedure explains the process of setting IFP and system levels for cost parameter emulation or cost profile emulation that can only be set by a DBC or SystemFE user. This limitation does not apply to setting RAS emulation. For more information, see to Teradata Vantage™ - SQL Request and Transaction Processing, B035-1142.

Use the TLE function at any time during export and import operations. The following scenario is typical:

  1. Export emulation information from a target system to a client machine.
  2. Import that emulation information to a test system.
  3. Apply TLE using the Set Target Level Emulation feature in Teradata SET.
  4. Capture query plans using Teradata Visual Explain.
  5. Analyze the query plan.
  6. Reset RAS, cost parameters, and cost profiles on the test system using the Reset feature in Teradata SET.
