Oracle Enterprise Commit

Hi all,
I am loading the data into an oracle table using Oracle Enterprise stage and I set the $APT_ORAUPSERT_COMMIT_ROW_INTERVAL to 2000 rows for the first time. Is it possible to change the number of rows to commit to 3000 in the next load during runtime?

Thanks in advance

Use the Sort Funnel type and specify the first column as a Key.

Sequential Funnel combines the data sequentially from the first file , then the second file and so on.

I don't know whether you really tried or not becuase this is very easy. Please search the forums for more information on stage variables. I am sure you will find thousands of posts. Since I had done this before, here is what you are looking for svCurr : Src.Col1 svUni : If svCurr = svPre then 'Y' el...

Surrogate Key Reset

Hi , Is there a way to reset the surrogate key sequence that is generated by SDK routines to starting point again once it is run? My opinion is that it is not possible to reet any sequence that is generated using SDK routines to zero.. Please advice. I did searched for it in the forums but did not f...

You can use DS functions in the transformer to get the number of rows from a input link. GetLinkInfo(). Using system variables like @INROWNUM , you will get the number of row that you are inserting/updating or the row that is rejected. If you want to see the total number of rows inserted , then chec...

Because OraOCI stage is the native stage available for connecting to Oracle database. The performance is faster with the OCI stage than using ODBC stage. As Chulett mentioned, ODBC stage is used only in a case where native Database stage is not available.

As Chulett said, you can use substr to get the date only from the input format that you have mentioned. Else you can use built in transform TIMESTAMP.TO.DATE along with either OCONV function or DATE.TAG to get the date only from the timestamp. Note : The input date format must be 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:S...

Well, I m not sure of your question but if you are asking about Stream link , Reference link and reject link, then here you go. Stream link is used for source files or master files while the reference links are used for Lookup files and Reject links are used as the name suggests rejected data. You w...
