• C – Take a checkpoint and continue the job
• P – Take a checkpoint and pause until a subsequent action
request resumes or terminates the job

Security concerns dictate that the SQL script to set up the Monitor Interface table for Teradata
TPump monitoring also establishes a set of views and macros in addition to the
TPumpStatusTbl. Although database administrators can access the table directly, using
macros and views is recommended because they provide for security and ensure rational use
of the table.
