    Insert in append mode

    Hi folks,

    i have 2 tables named F571226, F751226_10march in two different schema testdta, backupdta respectively
    Note: F571226 doesnt have any data in testdta schema, both have same columns names
    Now my requirement is to insert data into F571226 from F571226_10march

    but when i try to insert by below command it taking too time and failed

    insert /*+ APPEND PARALLEL*/ into testdta.F571226 value select * from backupdta.F571226_10march14

    shall i specify each field (columns name) instead of specifying source table (backupdta.F571226_10march) in the above syntax?. source table has got around 25000000 rows


    please correct my syntax if it is wrong

    insert /*+ APPEND PARALLEL */ nologging into testdta.F571226 value select col1, col2,col3,col4,col5 ................... from backupdta.F571226_10march.


    thanks & regards

    Unless the table is partitioned, I don't see how the parallel hint will help. Since the destination table is empty,
    you might want to get the DDL for the indexes and constraints, drop them then do the insert without parallel.
    You can then create the indexes and constraints.

    If the indexes and constraints are in place during the insert ever row needs to be checked to see if it is violating
    a constraint and each index needs to be updated for each row.

    No, both tables have the same structure therefore no need to specify column by column.

    You can try using Datapump (impd) with TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION and REMAP_SCHEMA import parameters -

    Hope this would help

    Try CTAS:
    Code:
    DROP TABLE Testdta.F571226 CASCADE CONSTRAINTS;
    
    CREATE TABLE Testdta.F571226
    NOLOGGING
    AS
       SELECT *
         FROM Backupdta.F571226_10march;
