Configure the High-Performance Loader
This section describes the process of configure the High-Performance Loader (HPL).
- Configure the ipload utility
When you configure the ipload utility, you describe the type of computer, code sets, and other aspects of your database server environment. Configuration information is stored in the onpload database. - Select a database server
The High-Performance Loader (HPL) needs to know the location of two databases: the onpload database and the target database. - Modify the onpload default values
You must describe the computer environments of your database servers. This information applies to database servers. If you change the description of a database server, the changes apply to all jobs that you run on that database server. You can prepare a default computing environment that applies to all database servers that are not explicitly described. - Selecting a driver
- Modify the machine description
The information that the Machines option of the Configure menu stores describes the characteristics of a specific computer. The High-Performance Loader (HPL) uses these characteristics to control the conversion of binary data formats. Unless you are converting binary data, you do not need to be concerned about the machine description.
