Unfortunately, Multiload cannot select from one table to insert into another directly. If you have mainframe connectivity and enough
space, you could FastExport the 1 mil rows to a dataset and Multiload the dataset back into the 500 mil rows table.
This may or may not be a better solution with regards to time - it depends on your channel throughput. But you gain the benefit of
Multiload's parallelism and restartability without worry of rollback if a system error occurred, and that alone is worth making the
change.
