Expdp without some tables data

Hi.
Is it possible to get schema export with no data in some tables? Is there a parameter where can assign it?

Hi,
You can do something like that
in this example it will export 0 rows from emp table.

  • Export with all objects and only some table data

    Hi,
    can we use exclude and include both at a time.Because I want export full schema but data required only some 5 table, Is it possible.
    please share expdp and impdp query.
    Regs,
    Brijesh

    Hello,
    can we use exclude and include both at a time.No, EXCLUDE and INCLUDE are mutually exclusive.
    I want export full schema but data required only some 5 table, Is it possible.You can make 2 separate Exports:
    - *1.* With the metadata only, by using the parameter below:
    CONTENT=METADATA_ONLY- *2.* With the Data of the 5 Tables.
    The _1st Export_ will let you have all the Objects of the Schema but you won't have any rows.
    For this _2nd Export_, you may use the INCLUDE parameter so as to select the 5 Tables for which you need Datas. As previously posted, the QUERY parameter let you apply a filter on the rows for each Tables. By that way you'll have only an extract of the content of the 5 Tables.
    NB: The use of a Parameter File is recommended so as to manage better all the Parameters you need, and avoid some troubles with some special characters.
    Hope this help.
    Best regards,

  • EXPDP exported data in some tables but exported zero rows in others

    Hello,
    Good day and top of the day to you.
    I created a parfile for expdp and the content is as below :
    DIRECTORY=EXPORTBANKSYS
    FILESIZE=4G
    INCLUDE=TABLE
    JOB_NAME=exportbanksys
    LOGFILE=banksytables
    PARALLEL=4
    SCHEMAS=BANKSYS
    DUMPFILE=banksystables%U.dmp
    The parfile is meant to export all table data in banksys schema.
    But i discovered that after i initiated the EXPort via the above parfile , part output is as below :
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."XXX" 5.289 KB 1 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."YY" 8.617 KB 1 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."YYY" 11.84 KB 1 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."branch_UNITY" 0 KB 0 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."branch_test" 0 KB 0 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."ACCNT5" 64.31 MB 1405026 rows
    . . exported "BANKSYS"."ACCNT" 64.25 MB 1403676 rows
    Despite the fact that there are records in branch_UNITY and branch_test the log file shows that no record was exported.
    Is there anything I did not do right ?
    |Please assist as I need to export all the tables and not some

    My only guess at this time is that you might have some extended security on those tablles that is preventing the scheama running the expdp job from seeing the rows. Can you log into sqlplus with the same schema running the expdp job and do a select count(*) from the suspect tables.

  • Any JPA features for updating table metadata without loosing existing data?

    Hi there,
    I'm having a database with live data in it.
    Now i have to change some tables (add columns, etc.). How can i do this without using drop-create-schema mechanics?
    Do i really have to change my entity classes first, change schema creation to just create-schema so that only new tables are created automatically and finally have to put all the "alter table" stuff manually?
    Is there any better solution?
    Thanx in advance

    no need, you can add columns using alter table command.
    The table schema change will not affect your entities.
    stop the application.
    change the table columns.
    start application having new entities.

  • Export table data in a flat file without using FL

    Hi,
    I am looking for options where I can export table data into a flat file without using FL(File Layout) i.e., by using App Engine only.
    Please share your experience if you did anything as this
    Thanks

    A simple way to export any record (table/view) to an csv fiel, is to create a rowset and loop through all record fields, like below example code
    Local Rowset &RS;
    Local Record &Rec;
    Local File &MYFILE;
    Local string &FileName, &strRecName, &Line, &Seperator, &Value;
    Local number &numRow, &numField;
    &FileName = "c:\temp\test.csv";
    &strRecName = "PSOPRDEFN";
    &Seperator = ";";
    &RS = CreateRowset(@("Record." | &strRecName));
    &RS.Fill();
    &MYFILE = GetFile(&FileName, "W", %FilePath_Absolute);
    If &MYFILE.IsOpen Then
       For &numRow = 1 To &RS.ActiveRowCount
          &Rec = &RS(&numRow).GetRecord(@("RECORD." | &strRecName));
          For &numField = 1 To &Rec.FieldCount
             &Value = String(&Rec.GetField(&numField).Value);
             If &numField = 1 Then
                &Line = &Value;
             Else
                &Line = &Line | &Seperator | &Value;
             End-If;
          End-For;
          &MYFILE.WriteLine(&Line);
       End-For;
    End-If;
    &MYFILE.Close(); You can of course create an application class for generic calling this piece of code.
    Hope it helps.
    Note:
    Do not come complaining to me on performance issues ;)

  • Af:Table data refresh without calling ManagedBean constructor

    Hi,
    I have an adf application jspx page where I have af:selectOneChoice and af:table showing default data. On selecting af:selectOneChoice value (assigned, completed etc.) I am calling managed bean method which calls task flow client api which gets the task details based on af:selectOneChoice value and show in the adf table.
    When ever I change the af:selectOneChoice value, first it is callling 'valueChanged(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)' method in managed bean and able to get the records based on filter value(Example: Assigned). Issue is immediatly after that Managed bean constructor also calling which overrides the previous query and get the records based on default filter value (Example: All).
    here is <af:selectOneChoice & <af:table code:
    <af:selectOneChoice id="rsoc" autoSubmit="true"
    binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_taskdetails.rsoc}"
    label="Status" valueChangeListener="#{backingBeanScope.backing_taskdetails.valueChanged}">
    <f:selectItem itemValue="A" itemLabel="All" />
    <f:selectItem itemValue="AG" itemLabel="Assigned" />
    <f:selectItem itemValue="C" itemLabel="Completed" />
    </af:selectOneChoice>
    <af:table emptyText="#{bindings.taskList.viewable ? 'No data to display.' : 'Access Denied.'}"
    var="row" columnStretching="multiple"
    value="#{backingBeanScope.backing_taskdetails.taskList}"
    immediate="false" rowSelection="single"
    binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_taskdetails.t1}"
    id="t1"
    inlineStyle="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; border:0pt none; "
    partialTriggers="::rsoc">
    Here partialTriggers is invoking managed bean. So Can I refresh only table data without calling managed bean constructor on selection of <af:selectOneChoice?
    Any inputs will be highly appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    here it is my adfc-config.xml file.

    I am not using adf taskflow (Should I use this, I am not sure as I am new to ADF. Please suggest). My execution flow is I have 'Human Task SOA application' which I am calling from adf application (managed bean --> workflow cllient API --> Human Task SOA Application) and showing task details in cutom UI screens. I do not want to use BPM worklist application as I need my own screens.

  • Create test database from standby without some data

    But have suggestion.
    You can create duplicate database on based your target database (to new host) and skip undesired tablespaces...
    bash# rman target /

  • Oracle Entity Framework: some tables won't update the entity data model

    I've successfully connected to an oracle database, and I've set up an entity data model project in Visual Studio 2010.
    Using "Update Model from Database" on the EDMX file, some tables that I select are imported, but others do not appear. Is there something about these tables that prevents them from being imported?
    Thanks
    Jonathan Poor
    Rubin & Poor, Inc.

    When I tried this the first time, I missed a message that answers my question:
    The table/view does not have a primary key defined and no valid primary key could be inferred. This table/view has been excluded. To use the entity, you will need to review your schema, add the correct keys, and uncomment it.
    Another table was brought in because the entity model managed to infer a primary key:
    The table/view does not have a primary key defined. The key has been inferred and the definition was created as a read-only table/view.

  • How to display table data without  using ALV  and table element.

    Hi,
            Its possible to display table data without using ALV  and table element.
           Every time i am fetching data based on (customer,status) fields and displaying these data in my output using alv
           (every time i am fetching single row data ),
           But problem is alv occupying more space in the output , i want to display data part only i dont want field names,
           settings and header data etc..things.
          Give solution to  display data part..
    Regards,
    Rakhi.

    Hi,
    Does you mean that you need ALV without default Function Toolbar...? If this is the case, the easy solution would have been to use Table Element rather. But, if you need to use ALV only without Function Toolbar, you can do away with that as well.
    In that case, after calling GET_MODEL, you need to add few more lines of codes to achieve your goal. Those lines are --
      DATA LV_VALUE TYPE REF TO CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE.
        LV_VALUE = LO_INTERFACECONTROLLER->GET_MODEL(
    * Standard Filter Function setting to FALSE
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_SORT_COMPLEX_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_FILTER_COMPLEX_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_FILTER_FILTERLINE_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_DISPLAY_SETTINGS_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_VIEW_LIST_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_SORT_HEADERCLICK_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
        LV_VALUE->IF_SALV_WD_STD_FUNCTIONS~SET_HIERARCHY_ALLOWED( ABAP_FALSE ).
    * Standard Filter Function setting to FALSE Ends
    Here as you can easily notice that LV_VALUE is instantiated on CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE. Now, using this LV_VALUE, you set standard functions as False to dis-allow their display.
    Hope this answers your query.
    Thanks.

  • Change table data without tabular report

    Hi,
    I am very new the APEX, and PL/SQL for that matter, but hope this is not too newbie.
    I am trying to make a page with a report where I can change table values by ediiting text in report columns. I have tried to use tabular report but since my source pl/sql includes a search etc I am not able to write SQL which is accepted as SQL updatable report.... this is my source which works with search:
    declare
    q varchar(32767);
    begin
    --Search with no text
    if(:p1_report_search IS NULL) then
    q := 'select * from tpd_delivery_detail';
    --Search According to criteria
    else
    q := 'select *
    from tpd_delivery_detail
    where upper(trim(:p1_report_search)) '||:P1_OPERATOR||' upper(trim('||:p1_in||')) ';
    end if;
    return q;
    end;
    So my first question is if it is possible to write this as SQL updatable report, and if how?
    Then I have a process which start when a button is pressed which is:
    declare
    l_colA tpd_delivery_detail.status%TYPE;
    l_colB tpd_delivery_detail.usr_comment%TYPE;
    begin
    for i in 1..apex_application.g_f01.count
    loop
    select status
    , usr_comment
    into l_colA
    , l_colB
    from tpd_delivery_detail
    where id = apex_application.g_f01(i);
    if l_colA != apex_application.g_f12(i) or l_colB != apex_application.g_f13(i) then
    update tpd_delivery_detail
    set status = apex_application.g_f12(i), usr_comment = apex_application.g_f13(i)
    where id = apex_application.g_f01(i);
    end if;
    end loop;
    end;
    In the process I try to to see if any of the two updatable columns are changed and needs updating, and if so update. Here my problem is the apex_application.g_f01(i) which when i is a number refering to the row...cant get the apex_application.g_f01(i) to refer to the data in the report.
    My question is how I can use the apex_application.g_f (suspect you can only use for tabular report) or if there is another easy way to do the updates I want?
    Best regards
    Alex

    Is it common to implement TDMS without scrambling sensitive data? => This depends on the customer situation , if you feel that you have very sensitive data in sender system and do not want to expose this data to users in receiver system , then for sure scrambling is the way else leave it .
    Or to change table auth groups in one system and not in another?=> I do not understand the need of doing this , can you elaborate a bit more .

  • Same table in 3 pages without some lines

    hi everybody!
    i have a form with a master page (containing the invoice fields) and 3 body pages that reference the master page.
    in each one of these 3 pages there is a table with one header row, 7 body rows and a footer row.
    the table was copied and pasted from page 1 to page 2 and page 3.
    between the body rows there are two that are bound with table data, one for invoice details and one for tax details.
    my problem is that in the 2nd and 3rd page in pdf output invoice and tax details are empty, while the other lines are present.
    my question is: how can i get the same complete table in three form pages?
    thanks in advance
    ps: here is my form http://www.scribd.com/doc/25198885/esempio-fattura-dati-inventati

    Not sure I follow .....are you asking for Page 2 and 3 to have the same table and values in the table as on Page1 or does each page have unique data?
    Where is the data coming from? Is the user typing it in or is there a separate data source somewhere?

  • Using the Insert statement in a Java program without hardcoding the data

    hello.
    this is james mcfadden. i have developed a program called Demo.java, which is used with another program called QueryTableModel.java (a program that allows data to be viewed in a JTable). The Demo.java program displays a menu, connects to a database, allows the user to add data into the database and allows the user to view data that is already in the database. I have a problem with the Demo.java program. I have hardcoded the Insert statement in it. How do you use the Insert statement to put data into a database without hardcoding the data?

  • To export and import oracle 11g table data only

    Hi Gurus,
    Just not sure of the procedure to follow in the export just the table data and then truncate the table do some changes(not table structure changes ) and then import the same table data in to the relevent table .
    Could some please help me in the setps involved in it .
    Thanks a Lot in advance

    If you can use Data Pump, here are your commands:
    expdp table_owner/password directory=<your_directory> dumpfile=table_name.dmp tables=table_name content=data_only
    impdp table_owner/password directory=<your_directory> dumpfile=table_name.dmp tables=table_name table_exists_action=append
    Data Pump requires version 10.1 or later.
