Teradata Parallel Data Pump

Chapter 3: Teradata TPump Commands
LOGOFF
LOGOFF
Purpose
The LOGOFF command disconnects all active sessions and terminates execution of Teradata
TPump on the client. An optional return code value may be specified as a conditional or
arithmetic expression, evaluated to a signed integer.
Syntax
.LOGOFF
retcode
;
3021A028
where
Syntax Element
retcode
Description
Completion code returned to the client operating system
If retcode is not specified, Teradata TPump returns the value generated by the
error condition.
Usage Notes
Example
Teradata TPump tracks the internal error condition code throughout the job and returns
either 0 for complete success, 4 for warnings, 12 for fatal errors, and 16 for no sysprint. These
values are the “error conditions”.
To avoid ambiguity or conflict with standard Teradata TPump completion codes, values
greater than 20 should be used. Teradata TPump returns the higher value between the value
generated by the error condition and the return code specified in LOGOFF.
If the LOGOFF command processes, this indicates that the highest return code reached was no
more than 4 (warning). Any return code other than 0 or 4 would have terminated the job.
LOGOFF is permitted at any point in the input script and logs off immediately.
Suppose successful execution of a Teradata SQL statement (such as CREATE TABLE) is
necessary to prepare for Teradata TPump. If it is determined that the statement has failed with
an unacceptable completion code, and if BADRC is set to &SYSRC after the failed SQL
statement, the execution of Teradata TPump can be terminated and the unacceptable code
returned to the client by executing this command:
.LOGOFF &BADRC;
