TEMP_EXTRACT_APPEND option

Function

Specifies that any rows extracted by the data extraction facility are added to the end of an output file.

Allowed values

ON, OFF

Default

OFF

Scope

Can be set for an individual connection. 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 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, Sybase IQ reports an error.
