As of Teradata Database 14.10.05 and 15.00.03, a simplified approach to determining which workload will support session management and parsing has been adopted  This posting describes this more straightforward approach which will be used starting in these 14.10 and 15.0 releases, and going forward in all future releases.

An earlier posting titled:  “A Closer Look at How to Setup a Parsing-Only Workload”  explains how session and parsing workload assignment takes place prior to this more simplified approach.  If you are on an earlier release, please see that posting from December 2014.
