Before using Teradata SET to control emulation, turn on the TLE feature for the test system. Using the DBS Control utility, set the general field 22 (Target Level Emulation) to TRUE. For a description of the DBS Control utility, refer to Utilities (B035-1102).

  1. From the main window or the Import window, click . The Set Target Level Emulation dialog box appears and displays the available emulation information on the current system. The Set RAS tab is selected by default.


  2. Do one of the following:
    • Select the desired individual RAS tags.
    • Click Select All to apply all of the listed RAS tags.
  3. Select one of the following to define the level of the RAS emulation:
    • Session
    • System
  4. Click the Set Costs tab.
  5. Select individual cost tags.
    Only one cost tag can be set for each level.
  6. Click the Set Cost Profile tab.
  7. Select an individual cost profile.
    Only one cost profile tag can be set for each level.
  8. Define the level of the cost emulation by selecting one of the following:
    • Session
    • IFP
    • System
  9. Click the Set IPE Plan tab. Select one IPE Plan based on the selected System Tag name and the Request name.
    Only one IPE Plan can be selected for Emulation. Unlike RAS and Cost parameters, IPE Plans can be emulated at SESSION (Request) level only.
  10. When finished making changes, click OK.
    If TLE is set from the main window, Teradata SET performs the emulation request immediately and displays the results in the main window. If TLE is set from the Import window, Teradata SET performs the emulation request at the end of the import operation.

  12. [Optional] See Perform Query Testing to analyze query plans that are emulated on the test system.
