Error message: ORA-03148: OCI_ATTR_ROW_COUNT cannot return a row count exceeding UB4MAXVAL.
SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Oracle currently does not support the creation of Oracle tables that contain more than 4,294,967,296 rows. This problem is fixed in SAS® 9.4M6 (TS1M6) and later releases.
Workaround
Complete the following steps to work around this issue:
- Write a SAS data set to multiple Oracle tables, with fewer than 4,294,967,296 rows in each table.
- Use SQL pass-through to merge the tables into one table in the Oracle database.
