Following are examples of three ways to invoke Teradata FastLoad on network-attached client systems:

  • fastload </home/fluser/tests/test1 >/home/fluser/tests/out1

    This command specifies both an input file and an output file:

    • /home/fluser/tests/test1 is the input file that provides the Teradata FastLoad job script.
    • /home/fluser/tests/out1 is the destination file for output data.
  • fastload </home/fluser/tests/test1

    This command specifies only an input file. In this case, the output is written to the standard output device, which is usually a terminal.

  • fastload

    This command specifies neither an input nor an output device. In this case, the terminal provides both the command input and the output data destination.
