Select a type of database from the list and click
Apply.

Property type

Either Built-in or
Repository.

Built-in: No property data stored
centrally.

Repository: Select the repository file
in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are completed
automatically using the data retrieved.

Host

Database server IP address.

Database

Name of the database.

Username and Password

DB user authentication data.

To enter the password, click the […] button next to the
password field, and then in the pop-up dialog box enter the password between double quotes
and click OK to save the settings.

Additional JDBC parameters

Specify additional connection properties in the existing DB
connection, to allow specific character set support. E.G.: CHARSET=KANJISJIS_OS
to get support of Japanese characters.

Use or register a shared DB Connection

Select this check box to share your
database connection or fetch a database connection shared by a parent or child Job,
and in the Shared DB Connection Name field displayed, enter the
name for the shared database connection. This allows you to share one single database
connection (except the database schema setting) among several database connection
components from different Job levels that can be either parent or child.

This option is
incompatible with the Use dynamic job and Use an
independent process to run subjob options of the
tRunJob component. Using a shared connection together with a
tRunJob component with either of these two options enabled
will cause your Job to fail.

Query band

Select this check box to use the Teradata Query Banding feature to add metadata to the query
to be processed, such as the user running the query. This can help you, for example,
identify the origin of this query.

Once selecting the check box, the Query Band parameters
table is displayed, in which you need to enter the metadata information to be added. This
information takes the form of key/value pairs, for example, DpID in the Key column and Finance in the Value
column.

This check box actually generates the SET QUERY_BAND FOR SESSION statement with the key/value
pairs declared in the Query Band parameters table. For
further information about this statement, see https://docs.teradata.com/search/all?query=End+logging+syntax.

Auto Commit

Select this check box to commit any changes to the database
automatically upon the transaction.

With this check box selected, you cannot use the corresponding
commit component to commit changes to the database; likewise, when using the
corresponding commit component, this check box has to be cleared. By
default, the auto commit function is disabled and changes must be committed
explicitly using the corresponding commit component.

Note that the auto commit function commits each SQL statement as a
single transaction immediately after the statement is executed while the
commit component does not commit only until all of the statements are
executed. For this reason, if you need more room to manage your transactions
in a Job, it is recommended to use the commit component.

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this check box to collect log data at the component
level.

Usage rule

This component is more commonly used with other tTeradata*
components, especially with the tTeradataCommit and tTeradataRollback components.

Limitation
