-b server option


Uses bulk operation mode.

Syntax

{ dbsrv10 | dbeng10 } -b ...

Applies to

All operating systems and servers.

Remarks

This is useful for using the Interactive SQL INPUT command to load large quantities of data into a database.

The -b option should not be used if you are using LOAD TABLE to bulk load data.

When you use this option, the database server allows only one connection by one application. It keeps a rollback log, but it doesn't keep a transaction log. The multi-user locking mechanism is turned off.

When you first start the database server after loading data with the -b option, you should use a new log file.

Bulk operation mode doesn't disable the firing of triggers.
