BCP File size limitation

  • is there a maximun file size for BCP files

    I have a problem where I make a BCP file from an oracle table with 7.5 million rows

    when I bcp it into sql server the table only contains 6.8 million

    any ideas

  • Not that I know of. I've loaded a couple mil, but never 7. I'll generate some data and try it tomorrow.

  • the problem was that I was FTPing the BCP file to the server and the drive which contains my FTPHOME did not have enough space for the file. So it just took as much as much space as was avialible and loaded the table with what data it contained in the file. no errors were caused which I thought would of happened.
