The Communication processor hostid must be specified if one has defined a copy/load request in one of the distributions defined for this server. The COP hostid is required for a load request because a load request uses the Teradata MultiLoad utility which requests this special hostid name in order to make a connection to the server. See the Teradata Tools and Utilities Installation Guide for information on how the COP hostid is defined. One needs to define a special entry in the “hosts” file.
