    You won't hit this problem if you use certain IMPORT options
    (rowcount, skipcount, restartcount, warningcount, commitcount
    automatic, allow write access, METHOD N, METHOD P)
    

Local fix

  • adding a WARNINGCOUNT n option with a large n (e.g.
    2,000,000,000) will avoid this problem without changing the
    behaviour of your import operation
