Hi all,
I have a scenario where I need to INSERT 17 Million records in a table

I need to truncate the table before inserting these records. i.e. before I insert these 17 Mi records I need to delete all the records from the target table.

I am using an Oracle enterprise stage. Is there a way in which I can truncate the whole table before I insert these records?

Thanks for the help.

In sql before tab use the Truncate statement or crate the sp and call it in sql before tab.


Clear and insert option will take al ot of time i.e. 17m rows.

Thanks

I am using the Upsert option and in that we don't have any option for truncate.

Is creating a Stored Proc the only option?

You can also pass the truncate command in the OPEN/CLOSE command of the enterprise stage.

Hi DSguru,

Can I pass an SQL like

truncate MyTable

in the open command of the enterprise stage. And does truncating of a table before inserting has any impact on the performance?

Yes. You can pass TRUNCATE command in the OPEN/CLOSE command. It will be the most performant operation.

Thanks for the Help :D
