Extracting data into flat file thru unix
Hi,

I need to extract a oracle staging table to a flat file thru unix batch process.We are expecting more than 4million records in the table.I know I can do it using "UTL_FILE" .But,since "UTL_FILE" takes a lot of time I am looking for better options.Can any body suggest some better options?

I tried spooling but couldn't get the file created in a specific path.Below is the code which I tried.

Unix script
Code:
vValue=`sqlplus -s <<-EOF 
$DB_id/$DB_pswd@$DB_server
start test.sql
exit
EOF`

SQL :
Code:
 
set echo off
set lines 150
set pages 0
set verify off
set feedback off
spool /u/dgapps/ikbdev/dta/tempbin
select pog_name ||',' ||status ||','||effective_from||','||effective_to from ikb_pog;
spool off

Please help.

DESCRIPTION

	 xen-update-image is a simple script which allows you to update
	a Xen image of Debian which has been created with xen-create-image.

	 It does this by mounting the image inside a temporary directory
	then running:

	     apt-get update

	     apt-get upgrade

	 NOTE If the image is already running within Xen this will cause
	corruption otherwise it will allow you to update your image without
	booting it.

EXAMPLES

	 The following assumes there are two images which are not currently
	running.  The images are called 'test.my.flat', and 'x11.my.flat'.

	 Updating both images can be accomplished by executing:

	    xen-update-images --dir=/home/xen test.my.flat x11.my.flat
