Issue in sorting a large dataset

Posted 05-07-2014 10:57 AM (648 views)

HI,

I am trying to sort a large dataset with 367538640 rows . Sort is getting failed because of the space issue. Tried using options compress =yes and tagsort . Tagsort is taking very long time. Please suggest any alternatives.

Thanks,
