OLE DB Destination

Applies to: SQL Server SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory

The OLE DB destination loads data into a variety of OLE DB-compliant databases using a database table or view or a SQL command. For example, the OLE DB source can load data into tables in Microsoft Office Access and SQL Server databases.

Note

If the data source is Microsoft Office Excel 2007, the data source requires a different connection manager than earlier versions of Excel. For more information, see Connect to an Excel Workbook.

The OLE DB destination provides five different data access modes for loading data:

  • A table or view. You can specify an existing table or view, or you create a new table.

  • A table or view using fast-load options. You can specify an existing table or create a new table.

  • A table or view specified in a variable.

  • A table or view specified in a variable using fast-load options.

  • The results of a SQL statement.

Note

The OLE DB destination does not support parameters. If you need to execute a parameterized INSERT statement, consider the OLE DB Command transformation. For more information, see OLE DB Command Transformation.

When the OLE DB destination loads data that uses a double-byte character set (DBCS), the data may be corrupted if the data access mode does not use the fast load option and if the OLE DB connection manager uses the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (SQLOLEDB). To ensure the integrity of DBCS data you should configure the OLE DB connection manager to use the SQL Server Native Client, or use one of the fast-load access modes: Table or view - fast load or Table name or view name variable - fast load. Both options are available from the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box. When programming the SSIS object model, you should set the AccessMode property to OpenRowset Using FastLoad, or OpenRowset Using FastLoad From Variable.

Note

If you use the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box in SSIS Designer to create the destination table into which the OLE DB destination inserts data, you may have to select the newly created table manually. The need for manual selection occurs when an OLE DB provider, such as the OLE DB provider for DB2, automatically adds schema identifiers to the table name.

Note

The CREATE TABLE statement that the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box generates may require modification depending on the destination type. For example, some destinations do not support the data types that the CREATE TABLE statement uses.

This destination uses an OLE DB connection manager to connect to a data source and the connection manager specifies the OLE DB provider to use. For more information, see OLE DB Connection Manager.

An Integration Services project also provides the data source object from which you can create an OLE DB connection manager, to make data sources and data source views available to the OLE DB destination.

An OLE DB destination includes mappings between input columns and columns in the destination data source. You do not have to map input columns to all destination columns, but depending on the properties of the destination columns, errors can occur if no input columns are mapped to the destination columns. For example, if a destination column does not allow null values, an input column must be mapped to that column. In addition, the data types of mapped columns must be compatible. For example, you cannot map an input column with a string data type to a destination column with a numeric data type.

The OLE DB destination has one regular input and one error output.

For more information about data types, see Integration Services Data Types.

Fast Load Options

If the OLE DB destination uses a fast-load data access mode, you can specify the following fast load options in the user interface, OLE DB Destination Editor, for the destination:

  • Keep identity values from the imported data file or use unique values assigned by SQL Server.

  • Retain a null value during the bulk load operation.

  • Check constraints on the target table or view during the bulk import operation.

  • Acquire a table-level lock for the duration of the bulk load operation.

  • Specify the number of rows in the batch and the commit size.

Some fast load options are stored in specific properties of the OLE DB destination. For example, FastLoadKeepIdentity specifies whether to keep identify values, FastLoadKeepNulls specifies whether to keep null values, and FastLoadMaxInsertCommitSize specifies the number of rows to commit as a batch. Other fast load options are stored in a comma-separated list in the FastLoadOptions property. If the OLE DB destination uses all the fast load options that are stored in FastLoadOptions and listed in the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box, the value of the property is set to TABLOCK, CHECK_CONSTRAINTS, ROWS_PER_BATCH=1000. The value 1000 indicates that the destination is configured to use batches of 1000 rows.

Note

Any constraint failure at the destination causes the entire batch of rows defined by FastLoadMaxInsertCommitSize to fail.

In addition to the fast load options exposed in the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box,you can configure the OLE DB destination to use the following bulk load options by typing the options in FastLoadOptions property in the Advanced Editor dialog box.

Fast load option Description
KILOBYTES_PER_BATCH Specifies the size in kilobytes to insert. The option has the form KILOBYTES_PER_BATCH = <positive integer value>.
FIRE_TRIGGERS Specifies whether triggers fire on the insert table. The option has the form FIRE_TRIGGERS. The presence of the option indicates that triggers fire.
ORDER Specifies how the input data is sorted. The option has the form ORDER <column name> ASC|DESC. Any number of columns may be listed and it is optional to include the sort order. If sort order is omitted, the insert operation assumes the data is unsorted.

Note: Performance can be improved if you use the ORDER option to sort the input data according to the clustered index on the table.

The Transact-SQL keywords are traditionally typed using uppercase letters, but the keywords are not case sensitive.

To learn more about fast load options, see BULK INSERT (Transact-SQL).

Troubleshooting the OLE DB Destination

You can log the calls that the OLE DB destination makes to external data providers. You can use this logging capability to troubleshoot the saving of data to external data sources that the OLE DB destination performs. To log the calls that the OLE DB destination makes to external data providers, enable package logging and select the Diagnostic event at the package level. For more information, see Troubleshooting Tools for Package Execution.

Configuring the OLE DB Destination

You can set properties through SSIS Designer or programmatically.

The Advanced Editor dialog box reflects the properties that can be set programmatically. For more information about the properties that you can set in the Advanced Editor dialog box or programmatically, click one of the following topics:

OLE DB Destination Editor (Connection Manager Page)

Use the Connection Manager page of the OLE DB Destination Editor dialog box to select the OLE DB connection for the destination. This page also lets you select a table or view from the database.

Note

If the data source is Microsoft Office Excel 2007, the data source requires a different connection manager than earlier versions of Excel. For more information, see Connect to an Excel Workbook.

Note

The CommandTimeout property of the OLE DB destination is not available in the OLE DB Destination Editor, but can be set by using the Advanced Editor. In addition, certain fast load options are available only in the Advanced Editor. For more information on these properties, see the OLE DB Destination section of OLE DB Custom Properties.

The CommandTimeout property only takes effective when data access mode is SQL command.

Data Access Mode Dynamic Options

Each of the settings for Data access mode displays a dynamic set of options specific to that setting. The following sections describe each of the dynamic options available for each Data access mode setting.

Data access mode = Table or view

Name of the table or the view
Select the name of the table or view from a list of those available in the data source.

New
Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

Note

When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared. To run an Integration Services component with the FILESTREAM attribute, first implement FILESTREAM storage on the destination database. Then, add the FILESTREAM attribute to the CREATE TABLE statement in the Create Table dialog box. For more information, see Binary Large Object (Blob) Data (SQL Server).

Data access mode = Table or view - fast load

Name of the table or view
Select a table or view from the database by using this list, or create a new table by clicking New.

New
Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

Note

When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared. To run an Integration Services component with the FILESTREAM attribute, first implement FILESTREAM storage on the destination database. Then, add the FILESTREAM attribute to the CREATE TABLE statement in the Create Table dialog box. For more information, see Binary Large Object (Blob) Data (SQL Server).

Keep identity
Specify whether to copy identity values when data is loaded. This property is available only with the fast load option. The default value of this property is false.

Keep nulls
Specify whether to copy null values when data is loaded. This property is available only with the fast load option. The default value of this property is false.

Table lock
Specify whether the table is locked during the load. The default value of this property is true.

Check constraints
Specify whether the destination checks constraints when it loads data. The default value of this property is true.

Rows per batch
Specify the number of rows in a batch. The default value of this property is -1, which indicates that no value has been assigned.

Note

Clear the text box in the OLE DB Destination Editor to indicate that you do not want to assign a custom value for this property.

Maximum insert commit size
Specify the batch size that the OLE DB destination tries to commit during fast load operations. The value of 0 indicates that all data is committed in a single batch after all rows have been processed.

Note

A value of 0 might cause the running package to stop responding if the OLE DB destination and another data flow component are updating the same source table. To prevent the package from stopping, set the Maximum insert commit size option to 2147483647.

If you provide a value for this property, the destination commits rows in batches that are the smaller of (a) the Maximum insert commit size, or (b) the remaining rows in the buffer that is currently being processed.

Note

Any constraint failure at the destination causes the entire batch of rows defined by Maximum insert commit size to fail.

Data access mode = Table name or view name variable

Variable name
Select the variable that contains the name of the table or view.

Data Access Mode = Table name or view name variable - fast load)

Variable name
Select the variable that contains the name of the table or view.

New
Create a new table by using the Create Table dialog box.

Note

When you click New, Integration Services generates a default CREATE TABLE statement based on the connected data source. This default CREATE TABLE statement will not include the FILESTREAM attribute even if the source table includes a column with the FILESTREAM attribute declared. To run an Integration Services component with the FILESTREAM attribute, first implement FILESTREAM storage on the destination database. Then, add the FILESTREAM attribute to the CREATE TABLE statement in the Create Table dialog box. For more information, see Binary Large Object (Blob) Data (SQL Server).
