BL_EXCEPTION=exception table-name |
specifies the exception table into which rows in error are copied.
Details |
To specify this option, you must first set BULKLOAD=YES.
DB2 under UNIX and PC Hosts: Any row that is in violation of a unique index or a primary key index is copied. DATALINK exceptions are also captured in the exception table. If you specify an unqualified table name, the table is qualified with the CURRENT SCHEMA. Information that is written to the exception table is not written to the dump file. In a partitioned database environment, you must define an exception table for those partitions on which the loading table is defined. However, the dump file contains rows that cannot be loaded because they are not valid or contain syntax errors.
Greenplum: Formatting errors are logged when running in single-row, error-isolation mode. You can then examine this error table to determine whether any error rows were not loaded. The specified error table is used if it already exists. If it does not, it is generated automatically.
