Answer / subbu

I agree with your statement using FLOAD we can't load the
data into a table which already contains the data this is
valid at intial run of FLOAD.

But here in our case the script was failed after loading
120 records and we have a check point option at 100
records.So one entry will be there in the log table after
100 records loaded into the table,as FLOAD utilty has the
automatic restart capability.It will start from 101 record
not from 121 record and the records from 101 to 120 already
loaded into the table It will omit those 20 records(from
101 to 120)and those will be loaded into the Errortable2(UV
table) remaining records from 121 to 1000 will be loaded
into target table.

Hope the above answer make it clear ur Question.

Answer / kishore

as the fastload supports restartability....if the script fails after loading 120 records....restart the script by rectifying errors...later it starts from last failed point in the log table....starts record loading from 121....(FAST LOAD DOES NOT SUPPORT DUPLICATE RECORDS because of the restartability concept)

Answer / tdguy

Just rectify the errors in the file and resubmit the job.
Fload will take of duplicates and moves to uv table.

Answer / mahesh raja

Fastload will load the records in to target table
after .END LOADING statement only, so the extra 20 records
wont populate in target table so restart will work from 101
record onwords.
