Activating a Client Character Set - Advanced SQL Engine - Teradata Database

After loading the needed character sets into the DBC.CharTranslationsV view, you must activate the character set.

1. Set the InstallFlag column to Y for the character set you want to activate. The limit is 16 active character sets.

   UPDATE DBC.CharTranslationsV SET InstallFlag=’Y’ WHERE CharSetId =  custom_characterset_id;

   or

   UPDATE DBC.CharTranslationsV SET InstallFlag=’Y’ WHERE CharSetName = ‘custom_characterset_name’;

2. Perform a full restart of Teradata Database, using the tpareset utility. For usage information, see tpareset in Teradata Vantage™ - Database Utilities , B035-1102 .
