ok Yechiel.
Thanks for the answer.

  Hello

  I do not have experience with 9i and 8i.   One paper that I downloaded from OTN (I think) is: Install and Configure the Oracle 9i Platform.   This paper starts with preinstall task: Remove installed oracle databases and removed all installed oracle software   from the machine.
  I believe this is just to simplify the new install.   We have a NT server with oracle 7.3.4 and 8.1.6 installed in two homes and there are no problems.

      Hello Stephen

      Thanks for the link.
      The article is very illuminating.
      As we have some loader tuning to do I thank you for sharing the knowledge.

        Ravi,
         
        To the best of my knowledge, there is no limitation on the number of records that can be loaded at a time other than the size of your rollback segments. I have loaded 10's of millions of rows in a single sqlldr job by setting some parameters.  There are defaults that work, but don't perform very well.  To determine appropriate settings, you may want to read an article I wrote for O'Reilly & Associates (located at http://oracle.oreilly.com/news/oraclesqlload_0401.html) which gives the step-by-step directions on setting 2 of the key parameters (BINDSIZE and ROWS).  It's a pretty easy thing to do, but without knowing you data, the only advice I could give is that DIRECT is the best quick tuning fix if you can.

        If you are going to be doing any serious data loading with SQL*Loader, Jonathan's book Oracle SQL*Loader: The Definitive Guide would be a good investment.

i belive there is a limitation on the number of records that can be loaded from sqlldr at a time based on the bind array and rows default parameter. if i have a data file with more than 5000records(don't know the exact number) that needs to be imported using sqlldr what is the value i need to set for the "rows" and/or "bind array" for me to load the records to the table at one attempt. thanks ravi -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Ravindra B INET: ravindra_at_navin.com Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: ListGuru_at_fatcity.com (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
