7 Load and Extract Operations

The Transporter Client performs load and extract operations based on the content of a control
file. This chapter addresses the following topics:

“Steps for Performing Load and Extract Operations” (page 61)
“Starting the Transporter Client ” (page 61)
“Stopping the Client” (page 62)
“The Transporter Job” (page 63)
“Sources and Targets” (page 63)
“Transaction Modes for Load Jobs” (page 64)
“Loading Data With JMS Trickle Feed” (page 64)
“Parallel Processing for Load Operations” (page 65)
“Considerations for Extract Jobs” (page 66)

These are the steps for performing a data movement operation:

Starting the Transporter Client

IMPORTANT:

HP recommends executing only one Transporter client at a time on the client

platform. Multiple invocations of the Transporter client on a single loader is possible with certain
loader/Neoview configurations. However, you must carefully consider client resources such as
physical memory, CPU loads, network bandwidth; and Neoview resources such as processor
loads. Executing multiple Transporter client instances from a single loader might negatively
impact overall Transporter performance.

Use these commands to start the Transporter client on Linux and Windows systems. The client
stops automatically at the end of a job or if the job fails. Use the -run attribute to submit a job
for the first time. Use the -recover attribute if a job using this control file has failed, you are
