If this is a new installation of Teradata TARA, configure ARC options only after you have completed the first four steps described in Configuring the TARA Server. If this is not a new installation of Teradata TARA, there is no required order of configuration.

  1. Select the ARC Options tab in the TARA Server Configuration dialog box.


  2. [Optional] Select Use Catalog to specify positioning data, so that when an object is restored, NetBackup can locate it without searching the entire tape.
  3. [Optional] Clear the Use Checksum Verification box, which is checked by default. The checksum verification feature verifies that the data being archived or restored is valid. However, the overhead of error checking slows the archive or restore process.
  4. [Optional] Select a character set other than ASCII in the Default Character Set list. ASCII is the default.

    Refer to the Teradata Archive/Recovery Utility Reference (B035-2412) for details on valid ARCMAIN command-line options.

  5. [Optional] In the Extra ARC Options box, enter any ARCMAIN command-line options that are not part of the GUI ARC build flow. In the example, VB3 appears in the box as the default (VB3 is a debug parameter that ARCMAIN uses to enable a level of tracing).
