The maximum number of concurrent Teradata FastLoad tasks that can run is variable; the limit can be controlled by a system administrator. MaxLoadTasks may be overridden if Teradata Active System Management (Teradata ASM) is active.
For the most up-to-date information on concurrent task limits, see the description of the MaxLoadTask parameter of the DBSControl utility in Teradata Vantage™ - Database Utilities, B035-1102. Additional information is available in the Teradata Dynamic Workload Manager User Guide (B035-2513).
If a Teradata FastLoad job exceeds recommended limits, Teradata FastLoad returns a 2633 error message indicating that too many loads are running. In this case, the utility retries until:
- It can execute the task.
- It reaches the TENACITY hours time limit specified by the BEGIN EXPORT command or runtime parameter.
