Monitor the load or unload operations

You can monitor the status of an external table load or unload operation.

You might want to monitor the load or unload operations for the following situations:
  • If you expect to load and unload the same table often to build a data mart or data warehouse, monitor the progress of the job to estimate the time of similar jobs for future use.
  • If you load or unload from named pipes, monitor the I/O queues to determine if you have a sufficient number of FIFO virtual processors.
