Multi-row Insert vs DB2 Load Utility

Post by thisak » Mon Aug 26, 2013 12:16 pm

In my project, I have to design a Job which should read a file, validate and load into DB2 tables. There are 2 different file volumes i.e. one comes with 5 - 10 million records (of LRECL 500 approx.) and other file with 20K to 100,000 records (of LRECL 400 approx.). I have to decide on either having single program which does all validation and load data directly into Table thro Multi-row Insert, Or having a program which prepares load dataset and then thro BMCLOAD load utility inserting into the Table. Can you please suggest me which approach will be best (if possible with data facts)?
