The Teradata QS client software has some general functions used by all Teradata QS components, such as writing to the error log file. Install the Teradata QS client software before installing the Teradata QS server software on a system.
Typically, the Teradata QS client software is installed on many systems while the Teradata QS server software is installed on one or a limited number of servers.
When only the Teradata QS client software is installed, the operations for the Teradata QS server are not available from the Teradata QS Operations tool.
