    In terms of committing every so many records, investigate the SQL*Net COPY command if you are not familiar with it.

    For transferring this many records, you may also want to investigate

          CREATE TABLE AS SELECT . . . . NOLOGGING Dennis Williams

Hi,

We are transferring data from one table in a schema to another table in another schema with identical fields using INSERT INTO schema1.abc (SELECT * from schema2.abc) The source table has 1.6 million records. The tablespace increases to consume full disk space and yet seems to be demanding more so the operation doesn't complete.

Is there a possibility to process commit after every 1,000 records? Is there any other way of doing it?

TIA! Aleem
