What is meant by MATCHTAG in multiload utility?

Answer Posted / pradeep

During the Acquisition phase the actual input data will
also be stored in the worktable so that it may be applied
in Phase 4, the Application Phase. Next, a match tag is
assigned to each DML request that will match it with the
appropriate rows of input data. The match tags will not
actually be used until the data has already been acquired
and is about to be applied to the worktable. This is
somewhat like a student who receives a letter from the
university in the summer that lists his courses,
professor’s names, and classroom locations for the upcoming
semester. The letter is a “match tag” for the student to
his school schedule, although it will not be used for
several months. This matching tag for SQL and data is the
reason that the data is replicated for each SQL statement
using the same data record.
