Setting the BL_DELETE_DATAFILE= option to YES deletes the temporary data file that is created after the load is completed. Only the data file is deleted; other files, such as the control, log, discard, and bad files, are not deleted.

To specify BL_DELETE_DATAFILE=, you must first specify YES for the option BULKLOAD=.
