SAS/ACCESS 9.2 for Relational Databases: Reference, Fourth Edition

Data Set Options for Relational Databases 4 BULKUNLOAD= Data Set Option 291Syntax DescriptionYEScalls a DBMS-specific bulk-load facility to insert or append rows to a DBMS table.NOuses the dynamic SAS/ACCESS engine to insert or append data to a DBMS table.DetailsUsing BULKLOAD=YES is the fastest way to insert rows into a DBMS table.See SAS/ACCESS documentation for your DBMS interface for details.When BULKLOAD=YES, the first error encountered causes the remaining rows(including the erroneous row) in the buffer to be rejected. No other errors within thesame buffer are detected, even if the ERRLIMIT= value is greater than one. Inaddition, all rows before the error are committed, even if DBCOMMIT= is larger thanthe number of the erroneous row.Sybase: When BULKLOAD=NO, insertions are processed and rolled back as expectedaccording to DBCOMMIT= and ERRLIMIT= values. If the ERRLIMIT= value isencountered, all uncommitted rows are rolled back. The DBCOMMIT= data set optiondetermines the commit intervals. For details, see the DBMS-specific reference sectionfor your interface.See Also“BULKEXTRACT= LIBNAME Option” on page 102“BULKEXTRACT= Data Set Option” on page 289“BULKUNLOAD= LIBNAME Option” on page 103“BULKUNLOAD= Data Set Option” on page 291“DBCOMMIT= Data Set Option” on page 297“ERRLIMIT= Data Set Option” on page 325BULKUNLOAD= Data Set OptionRapidly retrieves (fetches) large number of rows from a data set.Default value: NOValid in: DATA and PROC steps (when accessing DBMS data using SAS/ACCESSsoftware)DBMS support: NetezzaSyntaxBULKUNLOAD=YES | NO
