Teradata Events to Splunk

[sumgadde]

I need to take teradata Events to splunk. Currectly Teradata Event viewer is one which I am using to monitor the teradata Events.
However I am looking to get those events into Splunk from Teradata Event viewer.
I thought of two Approaches till now :
1. Reading Flat file of Teradata Events using SPlunk UF
2. Sending Teradata Events to Syslog and from syslog to splunk.
However As per Teradata Support , Teradata does to have capability to write Events to Flat file or sending them to syslog server.

Can anyone help me here pls ...

@sumgadde you can use Splunk DB Connect app with JDBC driver to connect to Teradata. Refer to the list supported drivers:

Thanks Niket !! I think dbconnect is to fetch teradata records. Actually I am looking for Events for Teradata healthcheck. Can we fetch Teradata healthcheck events using dbconnect ?

@adonio Can you please let me know where we can install this app? As Teradata does not have capability to write Events to Flat file or sending them to syslog server how can we use this app?
