Problem Note 47093: Registering Teradata tables using SAS® Management Console results in slow response time
 |  |  |  |  |
After you define a Teradata library in SAS Management Console, you can use SAS Management Console to register tables. While you are registering the tables, the query shown below is passed on the Teradata side. SAS runs this query to get a list of table names that are needed for registering tables in SAS Management Console.
SELECT TableName, CASE TableKind WHEN 'V' THEN 'VIEW' ELSE 'TABLE' END FROM
DBC.TablesX WHERE ((TableKind = 'T' OR TableKind = 'V' OR TableKind = 'O') AND UPPER
(DatabaseName)='DBNAME')
If you run the query below with the Basic Teradata Query (BTEQ) utility outside of SAS, you should see the same response time.
A workaround for this issue is to use the METALIB procedure (PROC) to register tables in metadata.
Example of PROC METALIB
ods listing close;
options metauser=sasadm metapass=XXXXXXXX; /* user credentials that have permission to update */
proc metalib;
omr( library="Teradata" repname="Foundation" );
report;
noexec; /* or remove the noexec to update */
run;
