Attaching Tablespace to a database

Hi,
I have created a schema on a seperate tablespace(.dbf file). I would like to know if it is possible to attach this schema to another database. For example in SQL Server you can attach the .mdf file and .ldf files to create new database(schema). Is this sort of method possible in oracle and if so how??
Thank you in advance...
Sheldon

This can help you to see how to do it:

Getting SQL to recreate tablespaces in new database

Hi,
This is probably a dumb question but is there a way I can generate the sql to recreate all the tablespaces in my database. I have one with 100+ tablespaces each with several datafiles?
I looked at backup controlfile to trace but this just gives me the datafiles
Many thanks
Sandy

See Jonathan Lewis's post at http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2009/12/31/dbms_metadata/
Instead
from dba_ts_quotas where username = 'TEST_USER'you could specify
from dba_tablespaces
order by 1Remember to SET LONG to an appropriate large enough value as the output from dbms_metadata.get_ddl is a CLOB.

How can i get that ?
Regards,

try this please
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLESPACE',tb.tablespace_name) from dba_tablespaces tb;or
select 'create tablespace ' || df.tablespace_name || chr(10)

Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?

Hi,
Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition instead of using the default "users" tablespace provided?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Correct. The sum of all user tablespaces is not allowed to exceed 4 GIG.
You could try shrinking your tablespaces. Theres a script called maxshrink on http://asktom.oracle.com which is useful for this.
You could compress your tables.
If you are storing lobs, you could consider storing them as bfiles.
Or upgrade to Oracle Standard Edition 1. Its not that expensive.

Temporary tablespaces in standby database

Hi Yogeeraj,
You can add tempfiles to the temporary tablespace on standby database with alter tablespace command. It only requires tempfile.

Attaching tablespaces to new host

Hi
I am using transportable tablepsaces to clone a database to different host.
I get the following error, when I try to attach the tablespaces:
ORA-39123: Data Pump transportable tablespace job aborted
ORA-29342: user JOHNC does not exist in the database
Does it mean that,I have to create users before I attach the tablespaces ?
If I export/import metadata, I believe all tables will be created. Is there a way to import metadata of all users ?

Hi;
What is DB version?
Does it mean that,I have to create users before I attach the tablespaces ?Yes

Single tablespace or full database in 10g

Hi,
Which is the best regarding performance...what ever it may be...when doing hot backup...which is the best in all ways..
(a) putting single tablespace in backup mode and copying
or
(b) Putting total database in Backup mode and copying...
can anybody sched some light on this..in all ways..

The best is to stop using paleolithic backup techniques and use RMAN with Block Change Tracking.

Cloning a schema using transportable tablespace in same database?

Well, why not simply test that yourself? You seem to know the command already. It is possible but with some effort:
You have to rename the original tablespace before importing it back. Also, you have to create the user testb with the appropriate privileges. The datafile that you import has to be renamed also, because a file with that name already belongs to the database.

Restoring only the tablespace from the database

How do we restore only a 'tablespace' from a Terabyte database without restoring the entire database.
ie... if a particular tablespace has been dropped from the database and we have the backup available for the database.
So, how do we go about it for restoring only that tablespace.

If you have a RMAN backup before dropping the tablespace then we can restore the tablespace by below method
It is a tablespace point in time recovery ,here we need to create a auxillary DB.
Recover a table/tablespace from Rman backup on same server:
===============================================
Here we have to create the auxillary database.
1.u should have valid backup of the database before dropping the tablespace.
2.create the password file of target database.
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME\dbs\PWDORCL2.ORA password=oracle
3.Take backup of the control file to trace for creating the new control file for new
auxillary database/
SQL> alter database backup controlfile to trace;
sample control file:
STARTUP NOMOUNT
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "aux1" RESETLOGS FORCE LOGGING ARCHIVELOG
MAXLOGFILES 16
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
MAXDATAFILES 100
MAXINSTANCES 8
MAXLOGHISTORY 454
LOGFILE
GROUP 1 'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\aux1\REDO01.LOG' SIZE 10M,//make sure here to change the location of of redo
GROUP 2 'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\aux1\REDO02.LOG' SIZE 10M, logs to new location or change the location name before
GROUP 3 'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\aux1\REDO03.LOG' SIZE 10M //starating the database at the end.
-- STANDBY LOGFILE
DATAFILE
'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\prafulla\SYSTEM01.DBF',
'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\prafulla\UNDOTBS01.DBF',
'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\prafulla\SYSAUX01.DBF',
'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\prafulla\USERS01.DBF',
'D:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\prafulla\USERS02.DBF'
CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252
4.create the password file of auxillary database.
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME\dbs\PWDORCL2.ORA password=oracle
5.create the control file
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
SQL>@create.sql
6 catalog all the backuppiece to the newly created database;
catalog backuppiece 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\LOG_707656915_50P1';
7.We have to restore system,sysaux,undo and the tablespace which was dropped
run
set newname for datafile 1 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\undotbs01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 5 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\users02.dbf';
set newname for datafile 3 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\sysaux01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 4 to 'D:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\aux1\users01.dbf';
restore tablespace SYSTEM;
restore tablespace UNDOTBS1;
restore tablespace users;
restore tablespace sysaux;
switch datafile all;
8.Take the other tablespace offline
sqlplus>alter tablespace tablespace_name offline drop;
9.recover the database prior to the time when tha table/tablespace was dropped.
RMAN> run{
2> set until time "to_date('07-01-2010 14:00:00','dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')";
3> recover database;
4> }
10.open the database in resetlog mode.
take a transpotable tablespace backup of that tablespace and import it on the database where you dropped it.
