The Teradata tab is the first tab of the TARA Server Configuration dialog box.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Teradata System | This list contains the display names (not the TDPID names) of the Teradata Database systems that have been configured for this TARA server. |
| Display Name | This is the name that to be displayed for this TDPID within the Teradata TARA GUI environment. Usually, the display name and the Teradata TDPID name will be the same. |
| Teradata TDPID | Specifies the Teradata Database machine name. You can change this to specify another Teradata Database machine name. |
| Browse User/Password | The Browse user and password is the Teradata logon information that the TARA server uses to query the Teradata Database. The user name and password must be a valid account within the target Teradata Database. |
| ARC User/Password | Specifies the ARC user name. You must have backup and restore privileges for the ARC user name that you specify. Type the password for the ARC user. |
| Default Stream Count | Click Single stream or Multi stream. For Multi stream, type the number of streams in the Multi stream box. The number of streams is essentially the number of BAR server tape drives that are configured. For example, if there are four BAR servers, each having two tape drives, enter eight streams. |
| Default Session Count | The default is four sessions per stream. A general rule is to have one session per amp being archived in the stream. An adequate number of parallel ARC sessions per stream are necessary to keep data moving. Too few sessions cause ARCMAIN to be the bottleneck during archival. Too many sessions are a waste of resources because some of the sessions remain idle. Refer to Teradata Archive/Recovery Utility Reference (B035-2412) for more detail. |
| New | Click New to allow entry of information for new Teradata machine. |
| Remove | Click Remove to remove Teradata machine from the configuration. A dialog box asks for confirmation. |
