Database import utility wizrd

I have a need to move the data from certain tables(of schema A) to schema B.I would be moving only tables and no other objects.I am using oracle sql developer and thought there are 2 options:
1.database copy 2.datapump
I have few questions:
1.Datapump import is not working if the target environment has truncated tables.It works only if the target tables are dropped...why? is there any setting that i can do so that it drops the table at runtime by itself if required?
2.which is teh best? db copy or datapump ...also do we have any other effective options for moving data
plaese suggest.thanks in advance

Import Utility Without Duplication

I planning to export one Schema from an Oracle database (let say DB1) and I want to import it into another Oracle database (let say DB2). However, DB2 already has the exported Schema along with its contents (Tables and its data/records), but the data/records in the Tables is/are old. Therefore I want to import the data from DB1 into DB2 while ensuring that there will be no duplication in DB2, is that possible?
The reason for that because the mentioned Schema contains more than 1000 tables and it will be a hassle for me clearing all corresponding tables in DB2 before using the import utility.
I am running Oracle 9i R2 on Windows 2000 Server for both DBs.

If data already exists at the target database, or at least the empty table, when you attempt to import to it you will receive duplicate rows since you must issue the import command with the IGNORE=Y clause.
You should clear all 1000 tables prior to performing the import, this is not a big deal, you don't have to manually do it, you can create a sql script out of sql to perform the truncate table command prior to performing the import.
One more option you have is to export with the query clause, if it is possible to find a key that let you find the subset of new rows at the source database, such as a primary key or an insert date column.
If you have primary keys on all target tables, then you can issue the import with the IGNORE=Y option, there will be plenty of errors at the time you perform the import, but these errors can be ignored as long as they refer to duplicated rows rejected by the primary key enforcement.
Another option is to evaluate using the merge command through db links.

Doubt on import utility

I want to export data from 10g release 2 database and import it into the 11g database . The database structure varies ie most of the schemas thati need to import are new ones which dont exist in the 11g database.
When I do a full database export from 10g db and then do a full database import into 11g db using datapump import I face many errors like
ORA-39083: Object type OBJECT_GRANT failed to create with error:
ORA-01917: user or role 'SH' does not exist
Failing sql is:
GRANT WRITE ON DIRECTORY "LOG_FILE_DIR" TO "SH"So should I create the users in the target db before running the import since there are hundereds of new users and creating users will be a hectic job or did i commit any mistake in running the import utility ?

Hi,
>>So should I create the users in the target db before running the import since there are hundereds of new users and creating users will be a hectic job or did i commit any mistake in running the import utility ?
I don't think so. Is there some problem in ran this command after the import operation?
GRANT WRITE ON DIRECTORY "LOG_FILE_DIR" TO "SH"Cheers

Database Import Error in Oracle 8i

Hi Friends,
I am using oracle 8i with Windows 2000 Pro SP4. I have a database dump file and i need to import the same using oracle 8i. I am getting the following errors.
imp system/manager file=sap30.dmp buffer=60000
the database was exported by SAP not by you.
imp unsuccessfully terminated
Finaly the error message says that export was done using 8.01.07 but iam using oracle 8i (8.1.5). Pl help me to import the database.
Thanks in advance
Mahendiran.A

dump file created in 11g database can't be imported in lower 8i version.
Restrictions When Using Different Releases of Export and Import
The following restrictions apply when you are using different releases of Export and Import:
Export dump files can be read only by the Import utility because they are stored in a special binary format.
Any export dump file can be imported into a later release of the Oracle database.
The Import utility cannot read export dump files created by the Export utility of a later maintenance release. For example, a release 9.2 export dump file cannot be imported by a release 9.0.1 Import utility.
Whenever a lower version of the Export utility runs with a later release of the Oracle database, categories of database objects that did not exist in the earlier release are excluded from the export.
Export files generated by Oracle9i Export, either direct path or conventional path, are incompatible with earlier releases of Import and can be imported only with Oracle9i Import. When backward compatibility is an issue, use the earlier release or version of the Export utility against the Oracle9i database.

Hello:
The Oracle Data Pump utility is now the preferred tool to use to import and export data and metadata from an Oracle database. Oracle Data Pump provides capabilities that far exceed those provided by the older imp/exp programs. Further, in addition to command line invocation of the tool, Oracle Data Pump has a set of pl/sql APIs (DBMS_DATAPUMP) that will let you do import and exports from pl/sql. You can therefore easily set up an APEX page that will accept a bunch of parameters and execute the appropriate procedures within DBMS_DATAPUMP to do the export/import.

Export/Import utility

With Oracle 10G, do we need to set the NLS_Lang for exporting and importing data.

The NLS_Lang FAQ says the following.
"In Oracle9i the Export utility always exports user data, including Unicode data, in the character set of the database. The Import utility automatically converts the data to the character set of the target database."
But it is not very clear from Export/Import FAQ in metalink.

Does Import utility supports downwards compatible

1. I need to do export from ora9i & import into 8i. Does it possible ?
2. How about Transport Tablespace , Is that works from 9i to 8i ?

Below Paragraph I cut & paste from Orafaq.org
Different versions of the import utility is upwards compatible. This means that one can take an export file created from an old export version, and import it using a later version of the import utility. This is quite an effective way of upgrading a database from one release of Oracle to the next.
Oracle also ships some previous catexpX.sql scripts that can be executed as user SYS enabling older imp/exp versions to work (for backwards compatibility). For example, one can run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catexp7.sql on an Oracle 8 database to allow the Oracle 7.3 exp/imp utilities to run against an Oracle 8 database.
Does Oracle 9i/8i comes with catexp8.sql .... ?Which I can execute at oracle9i DB.

Problems with VLM Import Utility

Hello!
We I are using NI Volume License Manager 3.0 together with NI Volume License Manager Import Utility for importing users data.
The problem is that we can't import .xml data into VLM when the user types his name into Full Name field and his name contains characters like ČŠĆŽĐ čšćžđ. These characters are not correctly written into .xml file with VLM Import Utility and we have to manually replace them with Microsoft Expression Web before we can load .xml file into VLM server.
Do you have better solution? Is there some new version of NI Volume License Manager Import Utility that correctly handles non English characters?
Thank you

Import utility for Security

Hi All,
I need to perform an equivalent of the Essbase MaxL statement "alter user UserX remove from group GroupX" through the import utility in Shared Services, since the Essbase security is externalized to Shared Services.
Can anyone help me on the above.
Thanks in advance,
Raja

Hi,
If you use the CSSimportexport utility, update the importexport.properties file with your environment details.
Set it up to read in .csv
In the csv enter the users you want to remove from groups e.g.
#group_children
id     group_id     group_provider     user_id     user_provider
EssGroup               testuser     Native Directory
so the id field has the group name, the user_id has the user name you want to remove from the group
In the importexport.properties file make sure you have the following.
# The import operation to perform.
# Options are: CREATE, UPDATE, CREATE/UPDATE and DELETE
import.operation=delete
Cheers

Syntax for datapump import utility (If data exists ignore table.)

I am trying to import 2 DMP files of the same schema with different data in the tables. The first one has half the tables filled with data from one subject area and the other dmp files has data from another subject area. Is there a syntax in the import utility which if data exists in a table ignore or skip it?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Is there a syntax in the import utility which if data exists in a table ignore or skip it?You have the Parameter TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION = SKIP :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16536/dp_import.htm#SUTIL936
But it let the Table as is. If a Table is empty it will stay empty.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
