The table or view in the database receiving the data can be any existing table or view for which privileges for maintenance tasks have been granted.
Note: Full tape support is not available for any function in Teradata MultiLoad for network-attached client systems. To import data from a tape, a custom access module that interfaces with the tape device must be written. For information about how to write a custom access module, L the Teradata Tools and Utilities Access Module Programmer Guide (B035‑2424).
