Massload | Configure the loading utilities
How massload works
The massload utility can help the WebSphere Commerce site administrator load an XML input file into a target database. Loading the XML file populates and updates the WebSphere Commerce database. The massload utility allows column-level updates to a table. It also allows you to delete data from a database.
Besides the functionalities listed above, the massload utility also includes the features below:
- Error reporter
The massload utility includes an error reporter that generates an exception document if an error occurred during massload execution.
- Product Advisor search-space synchronization
If you enable the loading utility's Product Advisor search-space synchronization feature, you can maintain near real-time synchronicity of Product Advisor search spaces and WebSphere Commerce catalog tables being updated by the massload utility.
In the next section we provide the steps for loading data to the WebSphere Commerce database.
