Guarding a Teradata Database Device

To guard a Teradata Database device:

1. Install CTE on every node in your Teradata Database Appliance. During this procedure you will register each ‘protected client’ (CM) with the Key Manager. For details, see Install CTE on the Teradata Database Appliance.

2. Identify the devices that you want to guard as IDT-Capable GuardPoints. For details, see Identify the Devices to Be Guarded.

3. Select the initial configuration method that you want to use. For details, see Select the Initial Configuration Method.

4. Initialize and guard the devices using the selected initialization method. For details, see Initialize and Guard the Database Devices Using the Standard Initialization Method or Initialize and Guard the Teradata Database Devices Using the Backup/Restore Method.

   

   Note

   You must use the In-Place Data Transformation policy type when guarding those devices.
