The Sybase IQ data file directory that is accessible from the machine where Integration Service runs.

If the directory is on a Windows system, use a backslash (\) in the directory path:

D:\mydirectory\inputfile.out

If the directory is on a UNIX system, use a forward slash (/) in the directory path:

/mydirectory/inputfile.out

Enter the directory path for the machine where the Integration Service runs.

Name of the Sybase IQ external loader executable. When you create a Sybase IQ external loader connection, the Workflow Manager sets the name of the external loader executable file to dbisql by default. If you use an executable file with a different name, you must update the External Loader Executable field. If the external loader executable file directory is not in the system path, you must enter the file path and file name in this field.

Method of loading data. Select Is Staged to load data to a flat file staging area before loading to the database. Clear the attribute to load data from a named pipe. The Integration Service can write to a named pipe if the Integration Service is local to the Sybase IQ database.
