Attila Szabo commented on SQOOP-3022:
-------------------------------------

Hi [~Tagar],

According to this ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25494.pdf 
page 604 ) both of them exits, and if I do understand correctly +APPEND is only 
usable when you use it with "INSERT into ... SELECT ..." statement, and 
+APPEND_VALUES when we have an INSERT statement with VALUES close (this is the 
case what makes sense in case of Sqoop IMHO).

According to Tom White +APPEND never worked with values (except one short 
amount of time/version), that was the reason why they added 
(https://asktom.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:6087912900346548365).

APPEND_VALUES in Sqoop:
org/apache/sqoop/manager/oracle/OraOopOutputFormatInsert.java
org/apache/sqoop/manager/oracle/OraOopOutputFormatUpdate.java
docs/user/connectors.txt
conf/oraoop-site-template.xml

So if I'm not mistaken:
the current usage of hints is appropriate, and with SQOOP-2983 we would also 
have it with a better performance than the current trunk version.

Could you please confirm my findings?

Dave, as the author of OraOop capabilities of Sqoop, could you please also 
confirm if my findings are valid?

Many thanks,

> Sqoop export for Oracle generates tremendous amounts of redo logs (comparable 
> to export size or more).
> We have put target tables in nologgin mode, but Oracle will still generate 
> redo logs unless +APPEND Oracle insert hint is used.
> See https://oracle-base.com/articles/misc/append-hint for examples.
> Please add an option for sqoop to generate insert statements in Oracle with 
> APPEND statement. Our databases are swamped with redo/archived logs whenever 
> we sqoop data to them. This is easily avoidable. And from business 
> prospective sqooping to staging tables in nologgin mode is totally fine.
> Thank you.
