Hello,
The title says it all. We are migrating our Teradata platform to Intellicloud and upgrading the database to version 16.2. Anyone still running Teradata 15.1 drivers and utils and connected to Teradata in Intellicloud that is DB version 16.2? And not having issues?
On our Windows Server 2012 R2, and SQL Server 2016 SP1 EE, we had Teradata 15.1 Drivers and TTU, Attunity 4, and VS15 w/ SST14, then upgraded to Teradata 16.2, Attunity 5, and VS 17 w/ SSDT15, and uncovered a host of issues and basically all our jobs had to go down till we figured out the correct combo of tools and versions.
We discovered that VS17 w/ SSDT, the SSIS side is not compatible with Attunity 5 when your SQL Server is version 2016. Along with other issues.
I had to leave Attunity 5 in, and add Attunity 4, before things would work, plus add VS15 back, to edit, create a Connection Manager that works, and can deploy without error and run without error. Crazy thing is with just Attunity 5, once 4 was added, it would work but sill only showed Attunity 5 being the version of MSTERA used, odd. Yet it can’t open an existing SSAS model without error. I can open it in VS17 SSAS though.
I’ve spent a lot of time and money with Microsoft Premiere Support, and we have it limping in 32 bit mode now as that’s what can successfully deploy and run right now, we’re working on the 64 bit side, and will address the SSAS issues once the whole driver/connector and likeable version of VS/SSDT can play nice with Teradata 16.2 drivers and utilities.
Would love to hear war stories from other who have been through this to compare notes.
Thanks
