Sets the permission required to load data using LOAD TABLE, and to unload data using UNLOAD or UNLOAD TABLE.

Syntax

{ dbsrv11 | dbeng11 } -gl { DBA | all | none } ...

Applies to

All operating systems and database servers.

Remarks

Using the UNLOAD TABLE or UNLOAD statement places data in files on the database server computer, and the LOAD TABLE statement reads files from the database server computer.

To control access to the file system using these statements, the -gl server option allows you to control the level of database permission that is required to use these statements.

The allowed values are as follows:

Both uppercase and lowercase syntax is acceptable.

The default setting is all for personal database servers on non-Unix operating systems, and DBA for the network database server and the Unix personal server. These settings reflect the fact that, on non-Unix platforms, the personal database server is running on the current computer, and so the user already has access to the file system.
