Export / Import --- Encrypt the data

Hi,
Is it posible to encrypt some data in a table during export/import in oracle 9i database (not in 10g)?
Best regards
RajaBaskar

The main reason why people assume there are undocumented features, is because they can't be bothered to adhere to the Forums Etiquette and read the documentation prior to asking their doc question.I do not see a reason to be so rude on this. If every person reads all the documentation and uses all the features of Support services or is aware of those then we do not need these forums at all.
I mean no offence and I agree with you in lot of other cases when people just come up with unnecessary posts but this one I see as a legitimate issue which lot of dbas find in their normal work life when they have to send an export dump to a partner outside their network and the export contains sensitive data.
Thanks,
Ankit.

Export / Import of Apex Data

Hello,
We are planning to move our Oracle databases from Windows Servers to Linux ones. In a test lab, we have successfully exported all data from an Oracle DB instance on Windows and imported that data on an Oracle DB instance on Linux (with the old export/import Oracle tool)
But in fact...it was all data except Apex data. The complete Apex environment is available on our new Linux server but no trace of all our workspaces and applications. The only available workspace is Internal.
We do not want to export / import all workspaces, applications, images and files one by one (by hand on the Apex environment).
- Is there a particular method to follow to include the Apex data in the export / import process ?
OR
- Is there a trick or a utility program that can automate the export / import of Apex data ?
Thank you for your help.
- Patrice

Patrice,
There is an Apex utility (it's called ApexExport) that can be setup to run workspace, application and page exports. It's a Java based utility and sometimes can be a little maddening to get configured to run but it will do the job once you get it configured. The utility will be on the database machine in the Apex installation directory. There is pretty good documentation available from Oracle but John Scott blogged about it here http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2006/12/12/backing-up-your-applications/ as well.

Encrypt the data and make the model unusable

hi, having to distribute the 3d animations made with sap, I would like to be sure that the data contained in the CAD models exported (. rh. vds pdf 3d) can not be used to reconstruct the model. How can I encrypt the data and make the model unusable?
thanks

Max,
There are other forms of file-based protection offered for mobile devices (SAP Afaria) and by other software vendors to secure the end deliverable (e.g. Adobe for 3D PDFs). In addition, SAP's partner NextLabs offers a very comprehensive solution to automate the security of your sensitive information and even provide expiration dating.
In addition to file protection, 3D Visual Enterprise includes a function to obfuscate the geometry itself thereby making reverse engineering almost impossible. The "Randomize Objects" function can be used to randomly skew the vertices of the model by small amounts. It keeps the normals correct, however, so that the object still looks smooth. This in turn makes precise measurements extremely difficult.

How to encrypt the data in a form?

Hi, everyone!
I want to encrypted the data in a html form
sent to a JSP/Servlet (using POST method).
For example, password.
How to do it? Are there some sample codes or
guides?
Cheers,
George

About the only way you could accomplish this completely on the client side is with JavaScript. But, that wouldn't be very secure as your encryption code would be publicly visible. If you want the data encrypted before it's sent to the server, you need to use SSL and the HTTPS protocol.

How could I Encrypt the data of SDO_GEOMETRY type using DBMS_CRYPTO package

Hi:
I want to Encrypt the data of SDO_GEOMETRY object type using DBMS_CRYPTO package.
What could I do? hope anyone can help me,give me a suggestions!
thanks in advance.
lgs

well, the spatial api would not be able to handle this data anymore, so what you are trying to do is converting an SDO_GEOMETRY to some cryptable user type (see http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_crypto.htm#sthref1506) and encrypting this.
Before using the SDO_GEOMETRY type will have to decrypt and reconvert it again and pass it to the spatial query or function.

Export/Import Error: The security token could not be authenticated

We currently are working in PLM 6.1.1 and users are experiencing Export/Import Issues, the error appears frequently with several users.
Steps:
1. A new token is generated from our QA environment
2. The user logs into Dev and transfers the token
3. In the export ADMIN area the user selects a section
4. In the QA environment the user schedules the import
5. The import is scheduled however the error is received after a few mins
Error Message:
The security token could not be authenticated or authorized ---> The directory service is unavailable.

This error can be difficult to reproduce but occurs periodically.

This is likely a DRL issue. verify DRL is configured correctly and a valid PLM4P user is setup in the setup assistant. in addition, make sure you added the new app in IIS for DRLService (this is a doc bug we are correcting that we failed to include in the 611 guide). verify you can attach and then open an attachment on a material spec.

Weblogic will encrypt the Data which are accesssed by using its Data Source

The Connection Pool and Data Source created from Weblogic , will encrypt the data which are accessed by using this Data source and Connection Pool from the DB?
If not how we can secure the data which are accessed from this Data Source?
Bye
Srinivasan

The connection between WL and the database can be encrypted; your DBA needs to configure the encryption on the database and then you set properties in the connection pool.
If you want to encrypt the data within the database, some databases can also do that.

Export & Import internal table data across the programs

Hi All,
I have two different reports,let say ZPRO1 & ZPRO2. I want to export internal table data of ZPRO1 to ZPRO2 and then I want to do some calculations in ZPRO2 with the imported internal table data(ZPRO1).
If I use 'SUBMIT' or CALL TRANSACTION syntax ZPRO1 is displaying..but I want to use only internal table data of ZPRO1.
Pls advise.
Pranitha.

Hi,
Please follow the simple code and try to solve your issue.
Code in program1
types: begin of ty_itab,
       matnr type matnr,
       end of ty_itab.
data: it_itab type table of ty_itab,
      wa_itab type ty_itab,
      it_itab1 type table of ty_itab.
select matnr from mara into table it_itab.
export it_itab to shared buffer indx(st) id 'ABC'.
Code in program2
types: begin of ty_itab,
       matnr type matnr,
       end of ty_itab.
data: it_itab type table of ty_itab,
      wa_itab type ty_itab.
import it_itab from shared buffer indx(st) id 'ABC'.
loop at it_itab into wa_itab.
write:/ wa_itab-matnr.
endloop.
Please delete shared buffer indx(st) id 'ABC', once we don't need the internal table data.
Regards
Dande

Using export/import to migrate data from 8i to 9i

We are trying to migrate all data from 8i database to 9i database. We plan to migrate the data using export/import utility so that we can have the current 8i database intact. And also the 8i and 9i database will reside on the same machine. Our 8i database size is around 300GB.
We plan to follow below steps :
Export data from 8i
Install 9i
Create tablespaces
Create schema and tables
create user (user used for exporting data)
Import data in 9i
Please let me know if below par file is correct for the export :
BUFFER=560000
COMPRESS=y
CONSISTENT=y
CONSTRAINTS=y
DIRECT=y
FEEDBACK=1000
FILE=dat1.dmp, dat2.dmp, dat3.dmp (more filenames here)
FILESIZE=2048GB
FULL=y
GRANTS=y
INDEXES=y
LOG=export.log
OBJECT_CONSISTENT=y
PARFILE=exp.par
ROWS=y
STATISTICS=ESTIMATE
TRIGGERS=y
TTS_FULL_CHECK=TRUE
Thanks,
Vinod Bhansali

I recommend you to change some parameters and remove
others:
BUFFER=560000
COMPRESS=y -- This will increase better storage
structure ( It is good )
CONSISTENT=y
CONSTRAINTS=y
DIRECT=n -- if you set that parameter in yes you
can have problems with some objects
FEEDBACK=1000
FILE=dat1.dmp, dat2.dmp, dat3.dmp (more filenames here)
FILESIZE=2048GB
FULL=y
GRANTS=y -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
INDEXES=y
LOG=export.log
OBJECT_CONSISTENT=y -- ( start the database in restrict
mode and do not set this param )
PARFILE=exp.par
ROWS=y
STATISTICS=ESTIMATE -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
TRIGGERS=y -- this value is the default ( It is
not necesary )
TTS_FULL_CHECK=TRUE
you can see what parameters are not needed if you apply
this command:
[oracle@ozawa oracle]$ exp help=y

You can let Export prompt you for parameters by entering the EXP
command followed by your username/password:
Example: EXP SCOTT/TIGER
Or, you can control how Export runs by entering the EXP command followed
by various arguments. To specify parameters, you use keywords:
Format: EXP KEYWORD=value or KEYWORD=(value1,value2,...,valueN)
Example: EXP SCOTT/TIGER GRANTS=Y TABLES=(EMP,DEPT,MGR)
or TABLES=(T1:P1,T1:P2), if T1 is partitioned table
USERID must be the first parameter on the command line.
Keyword Description (Default) Keyword Description (Default)
USERID username/password FULL export entire file (N)
BUFFER size of data buffer OWNER list of owner usernames
FILE output files (EXPDAT.DMP) TABLES list of table names
COMPRESS import into one extent (Y) RECORDLENGTH length of IO record

SUBMIT/EXPORT/IMPORT/ Specific layout data

Hello Everyone,
I would like to know if we can import the data (specific layout) after using submit and export.
My requirement is iam submitting RFITEMGL(FBL3N), exporting the list to memory and importing into my program. The data i am getting is as displayed just as when we run fbl3n independently.
Now in FBL3N, i can display posting date( which is not on standard display) by selecting change layout (CTRL+F8) and selecting specific field for dispaly.
My requirement is I need that posting date in my program by using submit/export/import.
Is it possible anyway?
Regards

Hi,
I have a similar requirement.Can u pls let me know how did u resolve it?

Export & Import in the same DataBase

Hi,
I'm trying to export and import in the same DataBase but in different User/Tablespace, the imp procces create the objects in the same Tablespace of the export. What can I do to create a copy of a schema in the same database?
Thanks. JEA

I am not sure if I am reading your question correctly, Create a new user in your database.
Use the command line (DOS) command 'exp80 username/password@hoststring'
there are a number of parameters here, you can find their meanings online if you search for 'export ORACLE command line parameters', I don't know what your requirements are but you have to set the FILE parameter with the name of the file you wish to store your output in(ext should be .dmp).
To import, use imp80 and log on as the new user you created then the following parameters need to be set:
File= your file name
SHOW = n
IGNORE = n
GRANTS = y
ROWS = y
FROMUSER = old user name
TOUSER = new user name
TABLES = *
I hope this helps.

ASD Export/Import and the Anti-Marshal (kind of like a supervillain)

Just tried to export a single resource action and import it back into the same environment with a new "prefix" and I get the following errors on validation.... same goes for importing it into another environment. (which we will call "new environment"... where the Resource Action doesn't exist) The workflow that the RA points to exists in the current environment because there is an RA that already points to that workflow. In the new environment, the workflow exists due to a successful vRO sync. (we can then build a successful form against the workflow in the new environment.)
It seems like it is complaining about the Resource Type, but none of those were selected for export.. so one would expect that they wouldn't be imported.
Anybody try out the export/import functionality in ASD and have it be successful?
When we build a form in our Lab environment, we have to completely rebuild it in two other environments. Though building forms in ASD is exceedingly fun and intuitive, we would really like to have a working export/import capability!

It throws same error for exporting/importing ASD blueprints( Nothing else was selected to export like actions etc). In this case ASD blueprint exists in the destination. Sean, did you make any progress?

How to export & import interface type data object to memory

Hi experts,
My greetings to all.
we have came across a situation where we need to pass interface type data object to memory
and import same from memory.
DATA context TYPE REF TO if_timecontext.
its not possible with regular export statement.
is their any other way to do it?
Thanks in advanced,
Sudhir

Thank you saurabhmani & sandra.
@ saurabhmani : i tried assigning object context to memory (field-symbol) and exporting it to memory, but got runtime error.
@sandra : XML serialization & shared object concept sounds intresting but as you already checked that interface IF_TIMECONTEXT is missing the required IF_SERIALIZABLE_OBJECT interface.
Istead of exporting context data object to memory we tried different approch and it worked out for our requirement
