Highest return code encountered = '4'.
Kindly Help!!
For further information..please follow the loader log details below:

When the fastload tried to logon, there were too many sessions already logged onto the Teradata.
So it logged on as many as it could and ran with this.
If no sessions is specified, it will try to go with one session per AMP. On a medium - large system, this is usually too many. For the number of records you loaded, I would go with roughly one session for every two AMPS.
Give it a SESSION command to improve setup time in your Fastload, and so you do not impact anyone else trying to Fastload at the same time.
This was only a warning - your job ran correctly. Return code 4 is always a warning.

Hi Jim!
Thanks for your reply!
Actually we are calling this script through a command task in a workflow on Informatica. This workflow is getting failed every time due to this issue. we are trying to eliminate this error so that the workflow runs smooth.
Kindly suggest us what to do to stop this error.

Take a look at chapter 2 in the Fastload reference manual.
You can set up a config file floadcfg.dat with a minimum and maximum number of sessions. Set the max to 50% of the number of AMPS and the min to 25% (but you may need to tune these!)
The load should then run OK, without the need to tune individual loads in Informatica.
If you have the maximum number of utility jobs set to 15 ("normal" max), you should have the maximum number of sessions on your system set to at least 8 times the number of AMPS. If 15 loads run simultaneously, each with half the AMPS, then they will all run clean. (If you exceed the 15th load, it goes into sleep mode until there is a slot free and the load will run clean eventually.
There is probably a way to get Informatica to include a SESSIONS command - see your Informatica support, or maybe there is an Informatica guru out there!
