High-Performance Loader User's GuideThe describes how to use the HCL Informix® to load and unload large quantities of data efficiently to or from Informix® databases.
Examples of loading and unloading jobs using the ipload utilityThis section shows how the components of the fit together. The section includes a step-by-step tutorial with two examples (for a load and an unload job) that use the ipload graphical user interface (GUI).
The ipload utilityThe uses information from the onpload database to control loading and unloading of data. Theoretically, you could create the onpload database and use DB-Acess or some other database tool to populate it. However, it is recommended that you always use ipload to manage the onpload database.
Check the ipload utility default valuesThe default values that ipload selects when it is first started specify machine type, character code set for character-type data, and other operating characteristics. In most cases, the only default that you might need to change is the machine type.
Look at the Machines windowChoose Configure > Machines to see the current default values. Make sure that the machine type displayed in the Machines window matches the current machine type. Click the Machine > Type down arrow to select a machine type. Click Cancel to exit from the Machines window.
