I am getting error while creating Control file for a fla file upoad in HANA

Hi Experts,
I am getting the following error when I try to create crtrol file for a flat file extraction in SAP HANA.
Could not execute 'import data into table P935718."COPATBL" from 'COPATBL.csv' record delimited by '\n' fields ...'
SAP DBTech JDBC: [257] (at 14): sql syntax error: incorrect syntax near "into": line 2 col 1 (at pos 14)
Here is the code I have used to create control file after I creating the table.
import data
into table P935718."COPATBL"
from 'COPATBL.csv'
    record delimited by '\n'
    fields delimited by ','
    optionally enclosed by '"'
error log 'P935718.COPATBL.err'
p935718 is my user ID, COPATBL is my table created, COPABL.CSV is a flat file.
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Guna

Hello,
guessing from the error message it looks that you are trying to execute "import data" as SQL command.
Please note that import data is NOT SQL command but it is syntax for control file. You need to create file with this syntax on server and then use command: IMPORT FROM '/<path>/<filename>.ctl'
In a shortcut:
1.- create comma separated CSV file with your data - <source cvs>.csv
2.- upload CVS file to HANA server
3.- create the control file <filename>.ctl:
import data
into table <schema>."<table name>"
from '<source cvs>.csv'
record delimited by '
fields delimited by ','
optionally enclosed by '"'
error log '<file name>.err'
4.- execute command:
IMPORT FROM '/<path>/<filename>.ctl'
Please check following threads:

Will HANA supports Bulkload

12c Create Control File for Entire CDB (CDB-root + PDBs)

Hi,
In 12c, I understand that there is a single redo log and a single control file for an entire CDB. My question is what datafiles should I use to create control file for the entire CDB. According to Managing Control Files, I suppose I should use all the datafiles (the result of query from CDB-Root: select name from v$datafile), but in practice, the control file creation process can only be successful when I use CDB-Root databfiles. Thanks in advance for any advice.

The actual error message is duplicate tablespace (system, sysaux), but the root-CDB and PDBs should have separate system and sysaux. The following is the script I used.

hai asif,
solved my problem , with this doc
Oracle VM Server for SPARC (previously known as LDoms or Logical Domains) :
To set the number of VCPUs for a given Logical Domain (LDom), use the 'ldm(1M)' with the 'set-vcpu' option:
# /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm set-vcpu <number> <logical_domain>
For example to configure eight VCPUs for the Logical Domain named "ebs1":
# /opt/SUNWldm/bin/ldm set-vcpu 8 ebs1
Please review the Logical Domains Administration guide for detailed information.
Users can then revert the number of VPUs to the original or desired values as a post EBS install step.
thanks a lot..

Problems creating control file in RMAN duplicate database

There is so much detail involved in this operation that I don't know what might be useful, so I'll start simple. I'm attempting to clone a database on the same host using RMAN "duplicate database". I finally got all the setup done, the OS authentication hurdles hurdled, etc. and entered the command:
duplicate target database to COPYCH2M until time "to_date('March 15 2012 12:00:00', 'Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS')";
The first time I got:
ORA-19504: failed to create file "/u01/app/oracle/oradata/COPYCH2M/control01.ctl"
ORA-27040: file create error, unable to create file
Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory
There was nothing in the Oracle instructions about manually creating the directory, but I did so, thinking that might be the problem. And it created the control files! But then I got the following:
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 05/21/2012 15:59:25
RMAN-03015: error occurred in stored script Memory Script
RMAN-06136: ORACLE error from auxiliary database: ORA-00201: control file version 11.2.0.0.0 incompatible with ORACLE version 11.1.0.1.0
ORA-00202: control file: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/COPYCH2M/control01.ctl'
Sounds straightforward, if frustrating, right? Apparently you can't duplicate a database that's not in the exact same version. But:
1) The backuppiece we got the control file from was from last November.
2) The version of Oracle has not been updated since that time.
How can a file created by this version be incompatible with this version? Where is it even getting 11.1?
Thanks, I'm hoping this is easy but I can post more info if needed.

>

The database is limited as to what it can create. Since you defined where you wanted the controlfiles to go (pfile/spfile), it's up to you to make sure the directory is valid and exists. :)
>

>
As for your controlfiles, make sure the compatible parameter is set the same on both the source and the target unless you are using the default (11.1.0.1 for you, and you aren't)
Keep going, you'll get there. RMAN duplicate is a great feature.
Good luck.

Error creating CONTROL FILE

I have a problem while installing 9iAS R2 on RH LInux 8.
When database configuration assistant starts during the installation of 9iAS infrastructure, it gives an error "Error creating CONTROL FILE" followed by many other errors.
Please help me out.
Zulqarnain

I had the same problem, but with RH9
To fix, I ran orapwd from the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory to create a password file called orapw. Then I moved this file to the directory where the configuration assistant complains it cannot find the file. Fixed. Obviously, just ignore the errors from the configuration assistant about the CONTROL FILE until it tells you the location of the file it is looking for.

Error in creating IO file handles for job (number 3152513)

Hi All -
I am using Tidal 5.3.1.307. And the Windows agent that is running these jobs is at 3.0.2.05.
Basically the error in the subject was received when starting a particular job once it was cancelled and a couple of other different jobs a few days before. These jobs have run successfully in the past.
This particular job was running for 500+ minutes when it should run at an estimated 40 minutes. At that time it would not allow for a re-start of the job, it just stayed in a launched status.
Trying to figure out what causes this error.
Error in creating IO file handles for job 3152513
Note - from that being said we were to see 2 instances of this process running at the same time, we noticed some blocking on the DB side of things.
Trying to figure out if this is a known tidal issue or a coding issue or both.
Another side note, after cancelling the 2nd rerun attempt the following error was encountered: Error activating job, Duplicate.
When we did receive the Error creating IO file, the job did actually restart, but Tidal actually lost hooks into it and the query was still running as an orphan on the db server.
Thanks All!

The server to reboot is the agent server. You can try stopping the agent and then manually deleting the file. That may work. When the agent is running the agent process may keep the file locked, so rebooting may not be sufficient.
The numerical folders are found as sub-directories off of the services directory I mentioned. I think the numbers correspond to the job type, so one number corresponds to standard jobs, another to FTP jobs. I'd just look in the numbered directories until you find a filename matching the job number.
The extensions don't really matter since you will want to delete all files that match your job number. There should only be one or two files that you need to delete and they should all be in the same numbered sub-directory.
As to the root cause of the problem, I can't really say since it doesn't happen very often. My recollection is that it is either caused by a job blowing up spectacularly (e.g. a memory leak in the program being launched by Tidal) or someone doing something atypical with the client.
