Server Utilities :: SQLLDR - Delimited File - Bypass Unwanted Data Fields
Aug 8, 2012
using SQLLDR: Looking for a control file solution to move past or bypass extra data fields which are not on destination table. Basically if you have 8 tab delimited fields(terminated by ' ') on a data record; but only need to load 5 of the values from the delimited record; is there a way to ignore/bypass the not needed data. Obviously, the answer would be to massage the data at the OS and removed the 3 unnecessary fields.
However my hands are tied by volume,time, and compliancy. I am familiar with using 'FILLER' for the reverse scenario; but not where you have more data available on the record then exists on the table.

I have a csv file extracted from mainframe which has to be loaded into oracle using sqlldr utility.The numbers are in the format +0000003333, -0000003232.44 etc
I have to convert it to 3333 and -3232.44 and insert into the table.
I have used syntax like
Load file....append into table (t_num expression "to_number(':tnum,'99999.999')")
This gives me an invalid number error.

Here's my table:
SQL> desc stg_query_overflow
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
HOSTNAME VARCHAR2(50)
NPSID NUMBER
NPSINSTANCEID NUMBER
OPID NUMBER
[code]....
Here's my controlfile:
load data
infile '/u01/tony/server_name/query_overflow.dat'
badfile '/opt/oracle/tony/sql_dir/bad/server_name_query_overflow.bad'
discardfile '/opt/oracle/tony/sql_dir/discard/server_name_query_overflow.dsc'
append
into table stg_query_overflow
[code]....
Here's a sample of data that I can't load into the table via sqlldr:
echo
echo ***** Creating view: "pul_promotion_response"
CREATE or replace VIEW "pul_promotion_response"
(
"promo_rsp_id",
"promo_hist_dtl_id",
"indiv_id",
[code]....
Here's the error(s) I receive in my log file:
Record 272: Rejected - Error on table STG_QUERY_OVERFLOW, column NPSID.
ORA-01722: invalid number
Record 273: Rejected - Error on table STG_QUERY_OVERFLOW, column NPSID.
ORA-01722: invalid number
As you can see, sqlldr is interpreting this vertical sql code as the npsid column, when in fact it is the querytext column. How can I insert each record when some of my data is in this vertical format?

We load large amount of data into multiple tables using sqlldr. Amount of data that we need to load varies according to the situation. We want to estimate the tablespace usage growth due to this data load, so we can verify/extend the tablespaces before the data load. Though, setting to autoextend will work in this case, We want to avoid extending the tablespace during sqlldr executing due to performance.
Our initial attempt was to note the tablespace size before and after executing the sqlldr and use the delta. But this delta was not consistent in different environments for the same amount of data. Different environments mean different oracle servers, different existing sizes of tablespaces, One data file Vs multiple data files etc.
How do we reliably estimate how much tablespace we need for the given amount of data?

I want to load lakhs of records into a table. My problem is when after loading the ¼ of records my process is abend due to the size of my rollback segment area. I don't have an option to increase it. So, Is there any way to go for intermediate commits when I am using the imp or sqlldr utilities to load the entire data without abend?

I am trying to Spool the data in pipe delimitted csv file but some of the records going on another line from the same records. Currently some of the data going to next line as below oulined in the 2nd and 3rd line (in bold - |Home & Family) . I have following sql setting in my spool file:
set linesize 4000 pagesize 0 trimspool on feedback off verify off echo off
set define off
spool Stk_hold_Sec_Tsk.csv
I tried increase linesize to 5000 but its not working.
Ex.
PSS:Production Manager|ZS:PsS:PP:PROD_TCODES|P2S: PP - Production Transactions|House & street
PSS:Production Manager|ZC:BW:PsS_RPT_MGR|BW PsS Reports Manager
[b]|House & street[/b]
PsS:Production Manager|ZC:BW:PsS_RPT_USER|BW PsS Reports User
[b]|House & street[/b]
PsS:Master Data (PDMs)|ZS:GEN:GENERAL_USER|GEN: General User|House & street
Data should be like into the file:
PSS:Production Manager|ZS:PsS:PP:PROD_TCODES|P2S: PP - Production Transactions|House & street
PSS:Production Manager|ZC:BW:PsS_RPT_MGR|BW PsS Reports Manager|House & street
PsS:Production Manager|ZC:BW:PsS_RPT_USER|BW PsS Reports User|House & street
PsS:Master Data (PDMs)|ZS:GEN:GENERAL_USER|GEN: General User|House & street
I think it should be something with linesize or pagesize but not sure

I am executing sqlldr from a UNIX shell script (HP box). The data I am loading is coming from a fixed length flat file. I also want to be able to pass a variable from the shell to the loader job to be loaded with the rest of the data into the oracle table. The value being passed will change with each execution of the shell script which is run on a daily basis.

I have a query that produces around 11 fields, and one of which is a multi-delimited field and the other 10 are dimension fields. I would like to split that field into several rows, and have the other 10 fields just repeated for each one. Here is an example of the data in the 11th field :
Column 11
34^56^78,59
There are two delimiters in the field, a carat and a comma. This field is used to reference document numbers that are needed to be sent in. The carat represents the word "Or" and the comma represents the word "And". I would like to have the output of each field to be a repeat of the 10 dimension fields, plus 3 new fields. The first new field would be the document number, the second new field would be the position within the original delimited field(1, 2, 3, etc.) , and the last field would be one of three logic words :First (if it is the first value), Or (if the value followed a carat), And (If the value followed a comma). Example of the output from the above value would be :
Column 11 Column 12 Column 13
34_______ 1_______ First
56_______ 2_______ Or
78_______ 3_______ Or
59_______ 4_______ And
Any thoughts on this? I have found a few solutions online on how to break up the delimited field into rows, but never with multiple delimiters or with extra logic for the added fields.

"2010-05-19 17:00:00.0","17","184","212"
I just want to insert only date without timestamp from the first field TXN_DATE. i.e., i just want 2010-05-18 in my table column.
my table desc is
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ---------
SEQID NUMBER(5)
TXN_DATE NOT NULL DATE
TXN_HOUR NOT NULL NUMBER(2)
VID NOT NULL NUMBER(5)
HID NOT NULL NUMBER(5)
i tried many combination but i couldn't achieve. right now i am able to get only the complete date with timestamp using the following control file.
APPEND INTO PERF_STATS
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' optionally ENCLOSED BY '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS

I'm using sqlldr to import geometries into a table. The import runs succesfully, but when I validate to imported geometries using "SDO_GEOM.VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT", it gives an error on empty geometries (or supossedly empty).
When I select to columns using sqlplus, the geometry column isn't entirely empty. After I set the geometry = null, the geometry is really empty. (see screenshot)
Question: How do I import empty geometries values properly, so that it's really empty My guess is that I have to alter to ctrl-file, like NULLIF
data:
3806501|
3806504|2001|90112||121231|485668||;:
ctrl-file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'aap.dat'

FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '$$'

I'd like to load ss_numbers, but concatenate dashes in between.
The ssn currently looks like this in the file: 123456789
I'd like to put dashes in there to make it load like this. 123-45-6789
The data is positional, so I have the column in the ctl file defined as:
ssn position(1:9) char nullif ssn=blanks ,
I know how to concat using the other method of loading this way, but this is not how the data file looks:
"substr(lpad(:ssn,9,'0'),1,3)||'-'||substr(lpad(:ssn,9,'0'),4,2) ||'-'||substr(lpad(:ssn,9,'0'),6,4)",
how to get the dashes in there while loading with the positional method?

I am doing a simple test and need to populate a small table with some data.
My table looks like this:
SQL> desc clob_test
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
ID NUMBER(20)
C1 CLOB
I have a pipe delimited data file ID range 1-50000 and random characters with a length of 100-4000 bytes for the clob field.
My control file looks like this but I am guessing it is wrong:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'clob_test.dat'
INTO TABLE CLOB_TEST
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(
ID INTEGER EXTERNAL NULLIF (ID=BLANKS)
, C1
)
Let me know what I need to do to my .ctl file in order to load this data?

I have written a shell script that will execute a procedure. The input parameters are constant.
#!/bin/ksh
sqlplus user@server.com<<EOF
set serveroutput on;
var Return_Code number;
var Return_Message varchar2(4000);
exec test_pkg.Insert_test('IDD', null, 'BATCH',:Return_Code, :Return_Message);
Now I have to call same procedure but the input is a csv file.
Is there a way to call a procedure using csv file, I cannot load the table using SQL Loader because there is a complicated logic.For every row in CSV there should be 3 rows inserted into table and 2 rows updated.
As of JAN 2, three rows have to be inserted with dates JAN2, JAN 3, JAN 4 and 2 rows ( 3ODEC and 29DEC have to be updated). Also these days have to be business days.
So all this code is in procedure that uses a DB2 package for business dates.Instead of using sql ldr , if would like pass the csv file as input param.

I am migrating data from DB2 to Oracle. I used DB2 export to extract the data specifying lobsinfile clause. This created all the CLOB data in one file. So a typical record has a column with a reference to the CLOB data. "OUTFILE.001.lob.0.2880/". where OUTFILE.001.lob is the name specified in the export command and 0 is the starting position in the file and 2880 is the length of the first CLOB.
When I try to load this data using sqlldr I'm getting a file not found.Attached is a copy of the control file and output from testing
PS. I cant use the DB2 option LOBSINSEPFILES which creates a separate file for each CLOB column because the table has over 14 million rows....and creating 14 mil files causes OS inode problems...

sqlldr works fine. but, i have primary keys defined in the table. So the SQL loader throws error that
SQL*Loader-951: Error calling once/load initialization
ORA-26002: Table WD has index defined upon it.
How should i change this load type to "normal" in sqlldr ? I think sqlldr made for bulk load purpose only.

I have a data in text file which has around 7 laks lines. I need to import those data into a table in oracle then do some process.
Since this job is done by end user, i have created a form with the following process.
Create a single text file from multiple flat files in client system. Run the application from the application server [ which is unix based ] once the text file is uploaded to the server, read the text file line by line and insert into the table.
The above process works perfectly in test eniviroment which I have as stand alone system. When I move this to application server and execute it, the session got killed after an hour and I got network inturpted error.
I would like to know is there any other method instead of reading line by line and insert into a table. I do not want to use the tools like sql Loader etc since I do not want my user to do lot of things.

I am using perl script to dynamically generate the control file.If I have data in the control file as well as in the datafile, how would i write the control file in that case. Is the below one correct?
load data
INFILE '*'
INFILE '/export/home/test/test.csv'
INSERT INTO TABLE EMP fields
terminated by "," optionally enclosed by '"'
trailing nullcols
( empno, empname, sal, deptno )
[code]....
Is there any way that if my control file contains half of the data and my data file contains the other half of the data can i club this data into a logical record in the control file to populate the DB?
My exact 2nd requirement is, my DB contains 5 cols and for 1 col the data is common(countryName) which i have to pass to the control file dynamically and the .csv file contains the data for the other four cols. How could i combine these in the ctrl file and populate the DB?
so if the DB contains CountryName, empid, ename, sal and dept..I will get the CountryName to the ctrl file and csv contains the data for empid, ename, sal and dept. How would i combine these data into a logical record and populate the DB?
