Oracle Database Administrator's Guide. The value for this parameter identifies the statement that is resumable. The value of the parameter specifies the time period during which an error must be fixed. If the error is not fixed within the timeout period, execution of the statement is terminated, without finishing. Keep in mind that if you specify a low value for ROWS and then attempt to compress data using table compression, your compression ratio will probably be degraded.
Oracle recommends that you either specify a high value or accept the default value when compressing data. Conventional path loads only: ROWS specifies the number of rows in the bind array. Direct path loads only: ROWS identifies the number of rows you want to read from the datafile before a data save.
The default is to read all rows and save data once at the end of the load. The actual number of rows loaded into a table on a save is approximately the value of ROWS minus the number of discarded and rejected records since the last save. For example, you can suppress the header and feedback messages that normally appear on the screen with the following command-line argument:. Header messages still appear in the log file. ERRORS - Suppresses the data error messages in the log file that occur when a record generates an Oracle error that causes it to be written to the bad file.
A count of rejected records still appears. SKIP specifies the number of logical records from the beginning of the file that should not be loaded. This parameter continues loads that have been interrupted for some reason. It is used for all conventional loads, for single-table direct loads, and for multiple-table direct loads when the same number of records was loaded into each table. It is not used for multiple-table direct loads when a different number of records was loaded into each table.
If a WHEN clause is also present and the load involves secondary data, the secondary data is skipped only if the WHEN clause succeeds for the record in the primary data file. It causes the index partitions that would have had index keys added to them to be marked Index Unusable instead, because the index segment is inconsistent with respect to the data it indexes.
Index segments that are not affected by the load retain the Index Unusable state they had prior to the load. The default database setting is TRUE. It is important to understand how they affect each other. Indexes that are in an Unusable state at load time will not be maintained but will remain in an Unusable state at load completion.
If it is omitted, you are prompted for it. For example:. See your Oracle operating system-specific documentation for information about special and reserved characters on your system.
Table shows the exit codes for various results. In UNIX, you can check the exit code from the shell to determine the outcome of a load. One may specify parameters by position before but not after parameters specified by keywords. See Also: Command-Line Parameters for descriptions of all the command-line parameters. Alternative Ways to Specify Parameters If the length of the command line exceeds the size of the maximum command line on your system, you can put certain command-line parameters in the control file by using the OPTIONS clause.
BAD bad file Default: The name of the datafile, with an extension of. See Also: Specifying the Bad File for information about the format of bad files. See Also: Discarded and Rejected Records for information about the format of discard files. All files in the external table must be identified as being in a directory object.
If you do not have privileges to create new directory objects, then the operation fails. LOG log file Default: The name of the control file, with an extension of. This means that the load will still take place, but no save points will be done. See Also: Interrupted Loads. Learn more. Asked 3 years, 4 months ago.

DmitriyYankin which choices I need to select? Choose "Administrator" type - it will be enough.

There is another bug in Oracle Universal Installer. Thanks for providing this as answer. However, as far as I know it applies only to version Bug applies to all versions above HI all, I wanted too load mulitple files into the same tables from different ctl files for test work. The problem is i need to be able too identify the different files loaded in de database.
For example : file1. Thanks for giving such valuable examples. Could you please give one example of control file to upload data in a file and then call a procedure to implement some logic and populate main table. Very nice article. Better understandable format. Explained well. We need more examples like this. I have a flatfile notepad , which has data not in order, fields separated by space, that too not orderly separated. Between fields there is space, but not ordered one. I tried using field terminated by space but, it has taken the entire row of data from notepad as a single column data in table, remaining fields in table are empty.
It would be great if anyone can solve my problem.
