well if u wanna commit after 1000 records u could very well use a cursor
and within the loop keep a counter which will indicate the no. of records
inserted...upon reaching 1000 records just commit and reinitialize the
counter..

i have written the "Pseudo" code below:

declare
        cursor c1 is
        SELECT * from schema2.abc;
cntr number := 0;
begin
        for c1_abc in c1 loop
                insert into schema1.abc values contained in c1_abc;
                cntr := cntr +1;
                if (cntr = 1000)        then
                        cntr := 0;
                        commit;
                end if;
        end loop;
/* the following commit is 4 last set of records that might not b commited*/
commit;
end;

Hi,

We are transferring data from one table in a schema to another table in
another schema with identical fields using
INSERT INTO schema1.abc (SELECT * from schema2.abc)
The source table has 1.6 million records. The tablespace increases to
consume full disk space and yet seems to be demanding more so the operation
doesn't complete.

Is there a possibility to process commit after every 1,000 records?
Is there any other way of doing it?

TIA!

Aleem
