Configuring Database User Account Privileges for Teradata Targets

Configuring Database User Account Privileges for Teradata Targets

Informatica Data Replication requires certain user privileges to read and apply changes to Teradata target databases. Target tables and the related log tables may be located in different databases. In that case, you must grant privileges on each database.
Grant the following privileges to the user accounts that Data Replication uses to connect to the Teradata target:
  1. To retrieve the structure of the tables, grant the following privileges: 
    GRANT SELECT ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT SELECT ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
  2. To create new tables for replication or logging, grant the following privileges: 
    GRANT CREATE TABLE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT CREATE TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    Optionally, grant the following privileges if you want the user who created a table to also be able to drop the table: 
    GRANT DROP TABLE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
  3. To insert or apply change data to target tables during InitialSync in Merge Apply mode, grant the following privileges: 
    GRANT INSERT ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT UPDATE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER;
GRANT DELETE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER;
    GRANT INSERT ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT UPDATE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DELETE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    GRANT CREATE TABLE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP TABLE ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    GRANT CREATE TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    GRANT CREATE MACRO ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP MACRO ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    GRANT CREATE VIEW ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP VIEW ON TARGET_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    The CREATE VIEW privilege is required only for handling long column names when log tables are created automatically. The corresponding DROP VIEW privilege is optional unless the user who created a view also needs privileges to drop the view. Data Replication does not perform any DROP VIEW actions.
  4. To insert change data to log tables in Audit Apply mode, grant the following privileges: 
    GRANT INSERT ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    GRANT CREATE TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
GRANT DROP TABLE ON LOG_DATABASE TO DATAREP_USER/ROLE;
    CREATE TABLE and DROP TABLE privileges are required to automatically create the error, work, and trace tables that Teradata Parallel Transporter uses.
