tNetezzaOutput

Writes, updates, makes changes or suppresses entries in a Netezza database.

tNetezzaOutput executes the action defined on the table and/or on the
data contained in the table, based on the flow incoming from the preceding component in the
designed Job.

tNetezzaOutput Standard properties

These properties are used to configure tNetezzaOutput running in the Standard Job framework.

The Standard
tNetezzaOutput component belongs to the Databases family.

The component in this framework is available in all Talend
products.

Note: This component is a specific version of a dynamic database
connector. The properties related to database settings vary depending on your database
type selection. For more information about dynamic database connectors, see Dynamic database components.

Basic settings

Database

Select a type of database from the list and click
Apply.

Property type

Either Built-in or
Repository.

 

Built-in: No property data stored
centrally.

 

Repository: Select the repository
file in which the properties are stored. The fields that follow are
completed automatically using the data retrieved.

Click this icon to open a database connection wizard and store the
database connection parameters you set in the component Basic settings view.

For more information about setting up and storing database
connection parameters, see
Talend Studio User Guide.

Use an existing connection

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

Note: When a Job contains the parent Job and the child Job, if you
need to share an existing connection between the two levels, for example, to share the
connection created by the parent Job with the child Job, you have to:

  1. In the parent level, register the database connection
    to be shared in the Basic
    settings     view of the connection component which creates that very database
    connection.

  2. In the child level, use a dedicated connection
    component to read that registered database connection.

For an example about how to share a database connection
across Job levels, see

Talend Studio
 User Guide.

Host

Database server IP address

Port

Listening port number of DB server.

Database

Name of the database

Username and
Password

DB user authentication data.

To enter the password, click the […] button next to the
password field, and then in the pop-up dialog box enter the password between double quotes
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

Action on table

On the table defined, you can perform one of the following
operations:

Default: No operation is carried
out.

Drop and create a table: The table
is removed and created again.

Create a table: The table does not
exist and gets created.

Create a table if not exists: The
table is created if it does not exist.

Drop a table if exists and create:
The table is removed if it already exists and created again.

Clear a table: The table content is
deleted.

Action on data

On the data of the table defined, you can perform:

Insert: Add new entries to the
table. If duplicates are found, job stops.

Update: Make changes to existing
entries

Insert or update: Insert a new record. If
the record with the given reference already exists, an update would be made.

Update or insert: Update the record with the
given reference. If the record does not exist, a new record would be inserted.

Delete: Remove entries
corresponding to the input flow.

Warning:

It is necessary to specify at least one
column as a primary key on which the Update and Delete operations are based. You can do that
by clicking Edit Schema and
selecting the check box(es) next to the column(s) you want
to set as primary key(s). For an advanced use, click the
Advanced settings view
where you can simultaneously define primary keys for the
Update and Delete operations. To do that:
Select the Use field
options check box and then in the Key in update column, select the
check boxes next to the column names you want to use as a
base for the Update operation. Do the same in the Key in delete column for the
Delete operation.

Schema and Edit
schema

A schema is a row description. It defines the number of fields
(columns) to be processed and passed on to the next component. When you create a Spark
Job, avoid the reserved word line when naming the
fields.

 

Built-In: You create and store the schema locally for this component
only.

 

Repository: You have already created the schema and stored it in the
Repository. You can reuse it in various projects and Job designs.

When the schema to be reused has default values that are
integers or functions, ensure that these default values are not enclosed within
quotation marks. If they are, you must remove the quotation marks manually.

You can find more details about how to
verify default values in retrieved schema in Talend Help Center (https://help.talend.com).

 

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

  • View schema: choose this
    option to view the schema only.

  • Change to built-in property:
    choose this option to change the schema to Built-in for local changes.

  • Update repository connection:
    choose this option to change the schema stored in the repository and decide whether
    to propagate the changes to all the Jobs upon completion. If you just want to
    propagate the changes to the current Job, you can select No upon completion and choose this schema metadata
    again in the Repository Content
    window.

Die on error

This check box is selected by default. Clear the check box to skip
the row on error and complete the process for error-free rows. If
needed, you can retrieve the rows on error via a Row > Rejects link.

Advanced settings

Additional JDBC parameters

Specify additional connection properties for the DB connection you
are creating. This option is not available if you have selected the
Use an existing connection
check box in the Basic
settings.

Note:

You can press Ctrl+Space to
access a list of predefined global variables.

Use Batch

Select this check box to activate the batch mode for data processing.

Note:

This check box is available only when you have selected the
Insert, Update or the Delete option in the Action on data list.

Batch Size

Specify the number of records to be processed in each batch.

This field appears only when the Use batch mode
check box is selected.

Commit every

Number of rows to be completed before committing batches of rows
together into the DB. This option ensures transaction quality (but
not rollback) and, above all, better performance at
executions.

Additional Columns

This option is not offered if you create (with or without drop)
the DB table. This option allows you to call SQL functions to
perform actions on columns, which are not insert, nor update or
delete actions, or action that require particular preprocessing.

 

Name: Type in the name of the
schema column to be altered or inserted as new column

 

SQL expression: Type in the SQL
statement to be executed in order to alter or insert the relevant
column data.

 

Position: Select Before, Replace or After
following the action to be performed on the reference column.

 

Reference column: Type in a
column of reference that the tDBOutput can use to place or replace the new or
altered column.

Use field options

Select this check box to customize a request, especially when
there is double action on data.

tStatCatcher Statistics

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

Enable parallel execution

Select this check box to perform high-speed data processing, by treating
multiple data flows simultaneously. Note that this feature depends on the database or
the application ability to handle multiple inserts in parallel as well as the number of
CPU affected. In the Number of parallel executions
field, either:

  • Enter the number of parallel executions desired.
  • Press Ctrl + Space and select the
    appropriate context variable from the list. For further information, see
    Talend Studio User Guide    .

Note that when parallel execution is enabled, it is not possible to use global
variables to retrieve return values in a subjob.

  • The Action on
    table     field is not available with the
    parallelization function. Therefore, you must use a tCreateTable component if you
    want to create a table.
  • When parallel execution is enabled, it is not
    possible to use global variables to retrieve return values in a
    subjob.

Global Variables

Global Variables 

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

NB_LINE_UPDATED: the number of rows updated. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_INSERTED: the number of rows inserted. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_DELETED: the number of rows deleted. This is an
After variable and it returns an integer.

NB_LINE_REJECTED: the number of rows rejected. 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.

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.

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

Usage

Usage rule

This component offers the flexibility benefit of the DB query and
covers all of the SQL queries possible.

This component must be used as an output component. It allows you
to carry out actions on a table or on the data of a table in a
Netezza database. It also allows you to create a reject flow using a
Row > Rejects link to filter
data in error. For an example of tMySqlOutput in use, see Retrieving data in error with a Reject link.

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 examples on using dynamic parameters, see Reading data from databases through context-based dynamic connections and Reading data from different MySQL databases using dynamically loaded connection parameters. For more information on Dynamic
settings and context variables, see Talend Studio
User Guide.
Limitation

Due to license incompatibility, one or more JARs required to use
this component are not provided. You can install the missing JARs for this particular
component by clicking the Install button
on the Component tab view. You can also
find out and add all missing JARs easily on the Modules tab in the
Integration
 perspective of your studio. You can find more details about how to install external modules in
Talend Help Center (https://help.talend.com).
