Dataset

You must have a ddw-catalogs (or other) dataset set up to hold your catalog files when you are done running the collector.

If you are using Catalog Toolkit , follow these instructions to prepare the datasets for collectors.



Setting up authentication for SAP HANA

You need an account with a role that has SELECT privileges on the resources that you want the collector to harvest metadata from. See SAP HANA Database Roles.

You can set up a role with either of the following privileges:

  • System privileges (CATALOG READ)

  • Object privileges (SELECT METADATA)
