Teradata Parallel Data Pump

Chapter 2: Using Teradata TPump
Restart and Recovery
• DDD is the number of the .DML sequence (ordinal) number. This value is not reset to one
for successive loads (.BEGIN LOAD) in a single job, but continues to be incremented.
• SSS is the SQL statements sequence (ordinal) number within the .DML group.
Thus, given the following script fragment:
.LOGTABLE LT_SIGH;
.LOGON TDPID/CME,CME;
...
.LAYOUT LAY1A
...
.DML LABEL TAB1PART1;
INSERT into tab1 values (:F0,:F1,:F2,:F3);
.DML LABEL TAB2PART1;
INSERT into tab2 values (:F0,:F1,:F2,:F3);
...
.IMPORT INFILE TPDAT
LAYOUT LAY1A
APPLY TAB1PART1
APPLY TAB2PART1;
and assuming the job name is defaulted, the macros are named:
M20020530_171209_06222_001_001 and M20020530_171209_06222_002_001.
The contents of a Teradata TPump macro is taken directly from the script and consists of a
parameter clause derived from the LAYOUT and the actual statement which is specified in the
script. Continuing the example above, if the LAYOUT associated with the statement is as
follows:
.LAYOUT LAY1A;
.FIELD F0 * integer key;
.FIELD F1 * integer;
.FIELD F2 * integer;
.FILLER FX * integer;
.FIELD F3 * char(38);
then the macros will be created as follows:
CREATE MACRO CME.M20020530_171209_06222_001_001 (
F0 (INTEGER), F1 (INTEGER), F2 (INTEGER), F3 (CHAR(38))
) AS (INSERT INTO TAB1 VALUES(:F0, :F1, :F2, :F3);
);
CREATE MACRO CME.M20020530_171209_06222_002_001 (
F0 (INTEGER), F1 (INTEGER), F2 (INTEGER), F3 (CHAR(38))
) AS ( INSERT INTO TAB2 VALUES(:F0, :F1, :F2, :F3);
);
Note that the actual names of the parameters in the parameter list are not important; however,
what is important is that the types of the parameters are specified in the macro in exactly the
same order as the types in the LAYOUT. Also important is the fact that FILLER fields are not
included in the parameter list since they are stripped out by Teradata TPump.
The error table, if it is not explicitly specified, is:
_nnn_ET
Where nnn is the load sequence number.
