Fastest Bulk Load
Jul 30, 2007
Hi All,
Im bulk loading a ton of data into MSSQL SERVER 2005 Standard Edition. I used to do this process in version 2000. It seems there is some more overhead in 2005. Is there a way to drop logging to almost null to speed up insert?
This is my current sql statment to load data.
EXEC sp_dboption 'my_stuff', 'select into/bulkcopy', 'true'
SET ANSI_WARNINGS OFF
BULK INSERT mystuff.dbo.[v1]
FROM 'c:myfile.txt'
WITH
(
FIRSTROW = 1,
FORMATFILE = 'c:scriptsv1.fmt',
MAXERRORS=2000,
ROWS_PER_BATCH=100000
)
Thanks,
Mike

I need to load a lot of data into a sql table as fast as possible. (All data is string data, CSV file). I have read that the "fastest" way to load data is using the "Fast Load" option of the OLEDB Destination but I have also read that the "SQL Server" Destination is fast.
1. Is there a general consensus as to which way is the quicksest load?
2. The file is a CSV file. Would a fixed-format file be faster to read?
TIA,

We have a sql 2005 x64 database (datawarehouse related), essentially a work area for us, that we truncate and re-populate via BCP weekly. (We don't backup the database at all) . From the perspective of data-import speed what is the best recovery model to use: Bulk-Logged or Simple? (I have read sql 2005 BOL and don't find it partcularly clear on this point.)

P.S. Anyone know of an article listing "best practices" for high-speed data import?

Im having some issues with bulk insert.
This is the table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tmp_GA_status](
[GA_recno] [int] NOT NULL,
[GA_desc] [varchar](40) NULL
)
This is the file (unicode):
1|"test1"
2|"test2"
3|"test3"
4|"test4"
5|"test5"
6|"test6"
7|"test7"
8|"test8"
and this is the sql:
bulk insert tmp_GA_status from 'C: empTextDumpGA_status.dta'
with (CODEPAGE='RAW', FIELDTERMINATOR='|', ROWTERMINATOR='
', DATAFILETYPE='widechar')
so yeah, pretty simple. But whatever I do I get this;
Msg 4864, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 1, column 2 (GA_desc).
So what am I doing wrong ?

I'm trying to use Bulk insert for the first time and getting the following error. I think it might have something to do with my Format File and from the error msg there's a conversion error for the first column. In my database the Field is nvarchar(6) so my best guess is to use SQLNChar for the first column. I've checked the end of each line is CR LF therefore the is correct for line 7 right?
Msg 4863, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (truncation) for row 1, column 1 (ASXCode).
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1

I have numerous jobs that use the Bulk Load object to transfer data. Once or twice a day, one of the jobs will fail with the folowing error:
Error: 0xC0202009 at Data Flow Task, SQL Server Destination [73]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "Could not bulk load because SSIS file mapping object 'GlobalDTSQLIMPORT ' could not be opened. Operating system error code 8(Not enough storage is available to process this command.). Make sure you are accessing a local server via Windows security.".
Error: 0xC0202071 at Data Flow Task, SQL Server Destination [73]: Unable to prepare the SSIS bulk insert for data insertion.
After receiving this error, any job that uses the bulk load object that attempts to run will fail with the same error. After restarting the SQL Server service, all jobs will run ok.
I can find virtually nothing on this particular error so if you have seen it before please let me know. This has become a maintenance nightmare!

hi all,
I am getting this error when I try to insert an image or update the database image. I am the owner of the database. I am trying to insert or update using an ASP.Net form (published) from a remote computer. Recently I changed a few permissions (added a user with login name and password) to that database to allow Reporting services access to all my group employees. Earlier everything was working absolutely fine. But now it is denying permissions when I try to insert or update the data when I access it from a remote system. I am able to get the data incase I do a get using the ID. But if I start the application on the localhost (Start Debugging) then its working fine and i am able to insert the data. Can someone suggest what could be wrong?
Check it out!!!! There is an exception!!!!! System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: You do not have permission to use the bulk load statement. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at _Default.Insert_Method()

Is there a way to use the script file from one database to load all the stored procedures into another database? I have used DTS to do them one at a time since the SQL task is very limited in the amount of text that it will handle. There has to be a way to use a script filel with all of the procedures in it to load a new database. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I have a file which has * as the field delimiter and ~ as the record delimiter, but I don't know how much columns each row will have. Only known is the maximum which can be 15.
The file looks something like: A1*A2*A3*~B1*B2~C1*C2*C3*C4*C5~
SO I have created a table with 15 columns(since 15 can be the max) but now when I try to insert it to that table, I inserts only the entire file into 1 single column.
The command which I am using is: BULK INSERT tablename FROM filename WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '*' , ROWTERMINATOR = '~')
but this is not giving the correct output.
The output expected is
A1 A2 A3
B1 B2
C1 C2 C3 C4 C5

I am trying to configure a bulk table upload from a 2003 Access table to a matching table in SQL with SSIS. I can configure the source file but am unable to configure the destination. When I configure the SQL source and use SQL Native Client I get an error message of:
The selected connection manager uses an earlier version of a SQL server provider. Bulk insert requires a connection that uses a SQL server 2005 provider.
When I go through the new connection setup I don't see any available provider named like that. I believe the SQL server I am loading to is a 2003 version.

I need to execute the following:
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
SET ARITHABORT ON
SET CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL ON
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET ANSI_PADDING ON
SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF
before I do a bulk load because the table I am inserting into has an indexed view created on it. Whats the best way to set these options prior to a bulk load?

I need to update a number of sql server tables, the data sources for these coming from a number of stored procedures. I want a generic way of getting the data and then passing this data to the tables.I am thinking of doing this for each table:Populating a datasetWriting this dataset to XMLUsing SQLXML Bulk Load to pass this XML to the database to updateI can create the xml data file by:
dataset.WriteXml("C:data.xml")The problem I have is that the example (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/316005/en-us) I looked at relies on the schema being defined:<?xml version="1.0" ?><Schema xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-data" xmlns:dt="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml:datatypes" xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql" > <ElementType name="CustomerId" dt:type="int" /> <ElementType name="CompanyName" dt:type="string" /> <ElementType name="City" dt:type="string" /> <ElementType name="ROOT" sql:is-constant="1"> <element type="Customers" /> </ElementType> <ElementType name="Customers" sql:relation="Customer"> <element type="CustomerId" sql:field="CustomerId" /> <element type="CompanyName" sql:field="CompanyName" /> <element type="City" sql:field="City" /> </ElementType></Schema>Is there any way I can create the schema 'on the fly' similar to how I did for the data source file.As I could then pass these files to the database:objBL.Execute ("schema.xml","data.xml");

hello,
I am working on an application that will import data from ascii tab-delimited files into corresponding tables in a sql server 2005 express db.
The problem I am facing is that i get errors when running bulk insert.
The tables all have one extra column which is a primary key identity value.
Additionaly, the column data types include:
int, bigint, nchar, nvarchar, datetime and bit
an example table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[counties](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[InternalID] [int] NULL,
[Active] [bit] NULL,
[Code] [nchar](10) COLLATE Greek_CI_AS NULL,
[Description] [nvarchar](50) COLLATE Greek_CI_AS NULL,
[StartDate] [datetime] NULL
)
An example data file looks like this:
InternalIDActiveCodeDescriptionDate
1 101Αι�„�‰Î»Î¿Î±ÎºÎ±��ν16/11/1909
2 102Α��γολίδο�‚29/04/1949
3 103Α��καδία�‚16/11/1909
4 104Ά���„η�‚ 16/11/1909
5 105Α�„�„ική�‚ 26/07/1943
So, what I do is:
1. for each table I generate a character format file with the following command:
bcp mydb..table format nul -f tableformat.fmt -c -T -S hostsqlexpress
2. I modify the format file to exclude the first identity column by zeroing the field length, the column order and terminator. The resulting format file looks like this:
9.0
6
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "" 0 id ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 12 " " 2 InternalID ""
3 SQLCHAR 0 3 " " 3 Active ""
4 SQLCHAR 0 20 " " 4 Code Greek_CI_AS
5 SQLCHAR 0 100 " " 5 Description Greek_CI_AS
6 SQLCHAR 0 24 " " 6 StartDate ""
3. I run BULK INSERT
BULK INSERT tablename
FROM dataFile
WITH (
FIRSTROW=2,
FORMATFILE = formatFile
DATAFILETYPE = 'char'
FIELDTERMINATOR=' '
ROWTERMINATOR='
'
KEEPNULLS
)
As a result of the above configuration I get this:
Msg 4864, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Bulk load data conversion error (type mismatch or invalid character for the specified codepage) for row 2, column 5 (StartDate).

Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "BULK" for linked server "(null)".
What am I doing wrong here? With previous configurations I got errors about the BIT fields. In general, I only receive errors... The only thing that worked was with a table that only had nvarchar. Is there a fundamental mistake in what i do? I have read many posts, but nothing specific about handling different data types with bcp and bulk insert.
I would appreciate any help, as I am running out of time
Thank you.

For Bulk Load requests in SQL server, Are there any specific profiler event? Like the one we have for RPC RPC:Starting and for Batch Requests, we have SQL:BatchStarting.
Are Bulk Load requests that are being monitored through Profiler captured as SQL:Batch... events at the backend?
Are there any new features added in 2012 or 2014 to identify a Bulk request submitted through bcp.exe utility or any other sqlbulkcopy program?

I want to import the contents of a remote database every morning via a Web service to populate a data mart. I am looking for the most efficient way to do this. Step 1 is to use the Web Service Task in SSIS to grab the data and save to an XML file (since the content is far too large to store in the String data type).
For step 2, I can either use the SQLXMLBulkLoad object in VB Script to read in the file and populate the tables. Or I can using the XML Source object in Integration Services. It is clear that SQLXMLBulkLoad is the most efficient way to load data, but is the XML Source object in SSIS just a graphical representation of the SQLXMLBulkLoad object, or is it something else entirely that is inefficient because it requires loading of the XML content entirely into RAM before it can process the XML?
Any other suggestions are welcome.
SQL Server 2005 SP2.
Thank you,

Hi,
I am new to SSIS but i have avg working knowledge in sql.
My problem is as follows ,I have a text pipe dilimited file in some folder and the number of columns and the name of the column is not consistant. It can have N number of column and it can have any column names. I need to load this text file data into a sql table. All that i want is to load this file to SQL Database with some temp name. Once i get the table in SQL Database, i can match the column names of both taget table and this temp table and only push those column which matches with the target table. For this i can frame Dynamic SQL. This part is clear to me.
Now the problem is , I developed a SSIS pacakge to push the text file to SQL Table. I am able to do this. But if i change the column names or added new column SSIS is not able to push the new columns. Is this functionality available in SSIS, is it can be dynamic like this?
I hope i am clear with my prob... if need any clarification please let me know
thanks in advance
Mike

Is there a switch I can use to force a bulk insert and if data is truncated, I'm good with that. The truncated data, in this case, is not data I can use anyway if it is long enough to be truncated.
I need to keep the field at VARCHAR(23) and if I expand it, I won't be able to join on it after the file load completes. I'd like the data to be inserted (truncated if need be) and then I'll deal with the records that are truncated after I load the file.

SELECT from openrowset(BULKÂ 'SERVERNAMEsomepathsomefile.csv'... fails while SELECT from openrowset(BULK 'c:somepathsomefile.csv' ... works.
I am running the task as a specific sql server user. If I run the same query in management studio using execute as login='batchuser', it also works for any path.
How can I make this work without an extra step moving the data to the local server? Because that would cause extra administration.

Each row ends with an EOL character, the fields are all fixed width, but I have a little problem here, some rows are empty but just with a EOL character.
How shall I go about it?

Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot bulk load because the file "\ServerNameinputFileName.csv" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
For example: If the command is run from System A connecting to SQL Server instance on Test Server Test Server it gives this error. If the same command with same rights is run from any other SQL server instance say Dev1 its running fine.
If the command is run from Test Server connecting to any SQL Server instance including Test Server it is running fine.
Tried: 1) Given the read/write rights on shared folder, to user under which the SQL server service is running on Test Server
2) Given the read/write rights on shared folder to everyone.
Query:
SELECT DISTINCT * FROM OPENROWSET
(
BULK '\ServerNameinputFileName.csv',
FORMATFILE='\ServerNameFormat.xml'
)
AS FileList
Please provide me with some solution. What can be the reason for such behaviour?

right now I have a stored procedure that goes through each of the Line and Body fields using a cursor. The problem is that this method is very slow. How would you experts solve this problem? any Hints or suggestions?

1. We are loading large amount of data from database on background thread which is starting on Application_start event in global.aspx.cs file.The data is later cached for subsquent request to improve the performance.
2. Now when we put the application on web farm garden, it is not able to load the application.
3. We are sending the request the servers through Router kind of application.
4 This application is working fine on single server enviornment.
Please help us.

Hi,
In my SQL server 7.0, I have got 250 store procedures in each database.
Before using them for my application, I want to ecyption all.
I must add "WITH ENCRYPTION" string in each SP in all database and it'll take me a long time. Is there fastest way to encryption all SPs in all DBs? Have anyone got an utility SP ( or anyway else) to do this?
Thanks in advance.

What is the fast way a stored procedure can copy a table from a linked server?
I would like to tune this statement, possibly with hints or other logging options. Assume that table_A and table_B have the exact table structure and that I want to preserve table_A and all its indexes and contraints. The table will be truncated before this load, if that helps in any way.
insert into table_A select * from OpenQuery(Server,'select * from Table_B')
TIA, Mike

In relation to my last post, I have a question for the SQL-gurus.I need to update 70k records, and mark all those updated in a specialcolumn for further processing by another system.So, if the record wasKey1, foo, foo, ""it needs to becomeKey1, fap, fap, "U"iff and only iff the datavalues are actually different (as above, foobecomes fap),otherwise it must becomeKey1, foo,foo, ""Is it quicker to :1) get the row of the destination table, inspect all valuesprogramatically, and determine IF an update query is neededOR2) just do a update on all rows, but addingand (field1 <> value1 or field2<>value2) to the update querythat isupdate myTablesetfield1 = "foo"markField="u"where key="mykey" and (field1 <> foo)The first one will not generate new update queries if the record hasnot changed, on account of doing a select, whereas the second versionalways runs an update, but some of them will not affect any lines.Will I need a full index on the second version?Thanks in advance,Asger Henriksen
