Block insert size parameters in Teradata can be set using the BTEQ utility or the Teradata Parallel Transporter (TPT) tool. Here's how you can set the block insert size parameters in Teradata using both methods:
- Using BTEQ utility:
In BTEQ, you can set the block insert size parameter by using the .EXPORT command. Specify the block insert size in kilobytes using the BLOCKSIZE option.
Example:
.EXPORT DATA FILE=myfile.dat
MODE RECORD;
.SET RECORDMODE OFF;
.SET TITLEDASHES OFF;
.SET SEPARATOR ' ';
*** Set block insert size to 100 KB ***
.EXPORT OUTBLOCKSIZE 100;
.IMPORT DATA FILE=myfile.dat;
- Using Teradata Parallel Transporter (TPT):
In TPT, you can specify the block size parameter in the TPT script using the BlockSize attribute in the Operator instance for the Target Connector.
Example:
DEFINE OPERATOR MyTargetOperator
TYPE EXPORT
SCHEMA MySchema
ATTRIBUTES
(
VARCHAR PrivateLogName = 'MyTargetOperatorLog',
VARCHAR FileName = 'myfile.dat',
INTEGER BlockSize = 100
);
You can set the BlockSize attribute to the desired size in kilobytes.
These are the ways you can set block insert size parameters in Teradata using BTEQ or TPT.
