<h1 class="topictitle1">Use the Copy From Import File (CPYFRMIMPF) command to copy between
different servers</h1>
<div><p>The <strong>Copy From Import File (CPYFRMIMPF) command</strong> maps or parses
the data from ("import") an import file to the to-file.</p>
<p>Depending on what type of file the import file is, there are different
steps to use when running CPYFRMIMPF.</p>
<p> The <a href="../cl/cpyfrmimpf.htm">CPYFRMIMPF</a> command
also supports a parallel data loader to copy information from an import file
to a to-file using multiple jobs during the copy. To use multiple jobs, the
server must have the Symmetric Multiprocessing Product (SMP).</p>

The Copy From Import File (CPYFRMIMPF) supports copying the data in parallel from an import file to a to-file using multiple jobs during the copy. This allows you to copy data files from other platforms into a to-file quickly and easily. This is especially useful for those who use data warehousing.

The Copy From Import File (CPYFRMIMPF) reads data from an import file and copies the data to a to-file. The data of the import file can be formatted by delimiters or in a fixed format.</li>
