High Performance Loader using Text BLOBs

Informix version 9.2 on Solaris No matter what I try, I cannot get onpload to load in Deluxe Mode. I have a very large file to load and am currently using a pipe and dbload. I want to use HPL. Following is a snippit of my test script: ======================================================== # Loads table ps_bc_note LOADINGDIR=/export/home/informix/ifmxdata/ccnc_rep # Remove uncompressed load file. rm -f $LOADINGDIR/ps_bc_note.unl # Create a pipe. /etc/mknod $LOADINGDIR/ps_bc_note.unl p sleep 2 # Uncompress to pipe. zcat $LOADINGDIR/ps_bc_note.unl.Z > $LOADINGDIR/ps_bc_note.unl & sleep 2 # Load from pipe. I TRIED ALL THE BELOW OPTIONS (AND OTHERS) #onpload -p ccnc_rep -j ps_bc_note -fplcn -l ~/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs/ps_bc_note.log #onpload -j ps_bc_note -p ccnc_rep -d $LOADINGDIR/ps_bc_note.unl -fplcn -l ~/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs/ps_bc_note.log #onpload -j ps_bc_note -p ccnc_rep -flc -l ~/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs/ps_bc_note.log #onpload -j ps_bc_note -p ccnc_rep -d ld_ps_bc_note -flc -l ~/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs/ps_bc_note.log onpload -j ps_bc_note -p ccnc_rep -m ps_bc_note -flc -l ~/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs/ps_bc_note.log ==========================================This is the output of my log file ==> informix@nova /export/home/informix/scripts/ccnc_rep/logs >more ps* Thu Oct 7 16:57:28 2004 SHMBASE 0xa000000CLIENTNUM 0x49010000 Tables with BLOBS or extended types cannot be loaded in Express Mode Thu Oct 7 16:57:28 2004 ========================================= The "device" defined in ipload is a pipe. I let ipload auto generate the job, the unload file is delimited "|", the blob text is contained in the unload file and is about 100 characters, the mapping is straight 1 to 1. ipload definitions==> job = ps_bc_note project = ccnc_rep device = ld_ps_bc_note mapping = ps_bc_note format = ps_bc_note (all fields are defined CHARS except the BLOB field which is SIMPLE LO TEXT) How can I force onpload to load in DELUXE mode instead of EXPRESS mode? Is my format defined correctly? Thanks, Jamie
