Scope

Option can be set at the database (PUBLIC) or user level. When set at the database level, the value becomes the default for any new user, but has no impact on existing users. When set at the user level, overrides the PUBLIC value for that user only. No system privilege is required to set option for self. System privilege is required to set at database level or at user level for any user other than self.

Requires the SET ANY PUBLIC OPTION system privilege to set this option. Can be set temporary for an individual connection or for the PUBLIC role. Takes effect immediately.

Description

This option specifies that any rows extracted by the data extraction facility are added to the end of an output file. You create the output file in a directory where you have WRITE/EXECUTE permissions and you set WRITE permission on the directory and output file for the user name used to start SAP Sybase IQ (for example, sybase). You can give permissions on the output file to other users as appropriate. The name of the output file is specified in the TEMP_EXTRACT_NAME1 option. The data extraction facility creates the output file, if the file does not already exist.

TEMP_EXTRACT_APPEND is not compatible with the TEMP_EXTRACT_SIZEn options. If you try to restrict the size of the extract append output file, SAP Sybase IQ reports an error.
