Tej,
in this case it would make more sense for you to act as suggested, check to see if you have write permissions or perhaps if there is no space on the device.

Actually there is no issue in permission, i have the permissions, and the disk space is cleaned

Which teradata stage are you using ? This is a common error if your using the MLoad stage. The reason is associated with huge volumes of data. Try unchecking the "Use Named Pipe" option and run the job again. Should be ok.!

The "Error writing to pipe: Broken pipe" message means that the Teradata MultiLoad stage is still writing to the named pipe, but the MultiLoad utility has stopped reading from the named pipe because it aborted for some reason. Check the MultiLoad report file and see if it contains any information on the reason why it aborted.
