DB2 Guidelines

DB2 Guidelines

Use the following guidelines when bulk loading to DB2:
  • You must drop indexes and constraints in the target tables before running a bulk load session. After the session completes, you can rebuild them. If you use bulk loading with the session on a regular basis, use pre- and post-session SQL to drop and rebuild indexes and key constraints.
  • You cannot use source-based or user-defined commit when you run bulk load sessions on DB2.
  • If you create multiple partitions for a DB2 bulk load session, you must use database partitioning for the target partition type. If you choose any other partition type, the Integration Service reverts to normal load.
  • When you bulk load to DB2, the DB2 database writes non-fatal errors and warnings to a message log file in the session log directory. The message log file name is <session_log_name>.<target_instance_name>.<partition_index>.log. You can check both the message log file and the session log when you troubleshoot a DB2 bulk load session.
  • If you want to bulk load flat files to DB2 for z/OS, use PowerExchange®.
For more information, see the DB2 documentation.
