Repository.

Since version 5.6, both the Built-In mode and the Repository mode are
available in any of the Talend solutions.

Built-in: No property data stored
centrally.

Repository: Select the repository
file in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are

Select this check box and in the Component List click the
relevant connection component to reuse the connection details you already defined.

Host

Database server IP address

Port

Listening port number of DB server.

Database

Username and
Password

DB user authentication data.

To enter the password, click the […] button next to the

and click OK to save the settings.

Table

Name of the table to be written. Note that only one table can be
written at a time and that the table must exist for the insert
operation to succeed.

Schema and Edit
Schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields to be processed and passed on
to the next component. The schema is either Built-In or
stored remotely in the Repository.

Since version 5.6, both the Built-In mode and the Repository mode are
available in any of the Talend solutions.

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this
component only. Related topic: see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Repository: You have already created the schema and
stored it in the Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs. Related
topic: see Talend Studio User Guide.

Click Edit schema to make changes to the schema. If the
current schema is of the Repository type, three options are
available:

File Name

Name of the file to be loaded.

This file should be located on the same machine where the Studio
is installed or where the Job using tNetezzaBulkExec is deployed.

Advanced settings

Field Separator

Character, string or regular expression to separate fields.

Escape character

Character of the row to be escaped.

Date format / Date delimiter

Use Date format to distinguish the way years, months and days are
represented in a string. Use Date delimiter to specify the separator
between date values.

Time format/ Time delimiter

Use Time format to distinguish the time is represented in a
string. Use Time delimiter to specify the separator between time
values.

Encoding

Select the encoding from the list or select Custom and define it manually. This field is
compulsory for DB data handling.

Max Errors

Enter the maximum error limit that will not stop the
process.

Skip Rows

Enter the number of rows to be skipped.

tStatCatcher Statistics

Select this check box to collect log data at the component
level.

Dynamic settings

Click the [+] button to add a row in the table and fill
the Code field with a context variable to choose your
database connection dynamically from multiple connections planned in your Job. This feature
is useful when you need to access database tables having the same data structure but in
different databases, especially when you are working in an environment where you cannot
change your Job settings, for example, when your Job has to be deployed and executed
independent of Talend Studio.

The Dynamic settings table is available only when the
Use an existing connection check box is selected in the
Basic settings view. Once a dynamic parameter is
defined, the Component List box in the Basic settings view becomes unusable.

For more information on Dynamic settings and context
variables, see Talend Studio User Guide.

Global Variables

NB_LINE: the number of rows processed. This is an After
variable and it returns an integer.

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the
component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This
variable functions only if the Die on error check box is
cleared, if the component has this check box.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable
functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl +
Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.

Usage

This component is mainly used when non particular transformation
is required on the data to be loaded on to the database.

Log4j

The activity of this component can be logged using the log4j feature. For more information on this feature, see Talend Studio User

For more information on the log4j logging levels, see the Apache documentation at http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/Level.html.
