Export oracle file to dbf file

Hai,
Could I export from oracle database file to dbf file. Because I am building form and I want to use push button to export to another form but the database is dbf so I can use for another application
Regards,
Patrick

Generally speaking I use the Perl XBase module, available from CPAN (www.cpan.org), either directly or through DBI.

Exporting of files in oracle 10g database

hey friends,
I installed Oracle 10g Database server on Windows XP,when i tried to take the backup through "Export to Files".I got this error.
I have added Administrator in "Login as Batch JOb" and has given administrator along with the password in host credentials.
I explain the procedure.I Login as Sys as SysOper as Oracle does not allow to take backup as sysdba.
I created the job and also given the right path for the backup but some how it fails then i check the log and i find the following output.
Output Log

Is it possible to import an Oracle 10 (export .dmp file) into Oracle 9 db ?

hi Oracle Guru's
Is it possible to import a oracle 10 (export .dmp file) into an oracle 9 database ?
I tried & got the following error ...
IMP-00010 not a valid export file, header failed verificationperhaps their is a work-around ?
thanks

Hi
You can take export from a previous version and import to a later version. Having said that, there is still a workaround to do what you want.
On 9i server add a connect string for your 10g instance. Then use 9i export utility to export 10g data. That way your export will be compatible with 9i. You can then import the data in your 9i instance.
To create connect string you can either use Net Configuration Assistant or manually edit TNSNAMES.ORA file in your 9i server.
Hope it helps.

How to ZIP Oracle Datapump export backup file

Hello All,
My customer is asking to give him the production data dump to the following path \\138.90.17.56\OMNISAFE.
I really don't understand his requirement and he also wants me to zip the export backup file. How do I do that, Do you know any unix command to zip backup files.
thanks and regards

Well Thanks for your reply.....my oracle version is 11.2.0.3.b and if we have the compression option can you please elaborate how to do that......
It's in the documentation. See Data Pump Export
let us say my expdp file is abc.dmp...should I give the command gzip abc.dmp or any different.
Let me google that for you
One more question what does teh customer mean by production data dump to the following path \\138.90.17.56\OMNISAFE. please explain
How do we know what the customer means? Why don't you ask him?
That said, it looks like a url to an ip address and a defined folder at that ip address. Again, if the customer wants you to send them a file, you need to be working with said customer on the mechanics of accessing their system.
All that said ....
Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
Locate the link for your Oracle product and version, and click on it.
You are now at the entire documentation set for your selected Oracle product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab (for 10.x) or the "Master Book List" link (for 11.x) you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- *Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual*.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- *When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again*.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Even if we have to overwrite tablespaces , tables and users.

Glad that worked.
Working with MDS, another way is to use the EM console for exporting/importing data from/to MDS. This I find lot easier rather than working with the OOTB script.
Steps are:
http://ADMINSTRATION_SERVER/em
Navigate to Identity and Access, oim. Right-click and navigate to System MBean Browser.
Under Application Defined MBeans, navigate to oracle.mds.lcm, Server:oim_server1, Application:oim, MDSAppRuntime.
To export the configuration files:
•     Click the Operations tab, and then click exportMetaData.
•     In the toLocation field, enter /tmp or the name of another directory.
•     Select createSubDir as false.
•     In the docs field, enter the complete file location as the Element.
•     Also select false for excludeAllCust, excludeBaseDocs, and excludeExtendedMetadata. Then, click Invoke.
This exports the file specified in the docs field to the directory specified in the toLocation field.
To import the configuration files:
•     Click importMetaData
•     In the fromLocation field, enter /tmp or the name of the directory in which you have the configuration files.
•     Select createSubDir as false.
•     In the docs field, enter the complete file location as the Element. For example, /db/oim-config.xml.
•     Also select false for excludeAllCust, excludeBaseDocs, and excludeExtendedMetadata. Then, click Invoke.
This imports the file specified in the docs field to MDS in the toLocation field.

Naming for Export dmp file in Date and Time

Dear All,
Please advise me how to give the file name in date and time stamp for the export dmp file and it's log file.Suggest me in Oracle 9i version.
for example the file name get like this 020420041155.dmp and 020420041155.log where date and time are 02/04/2004 11:55 respectively...
Kindly let me know the syntax of filename to be given along with the EXP command..
Thanking You,
Ragesh

Hello
I don't think you can get the exp command to automatically name an export for you. The only way I think you would be able to do it is through a shell script or something where you format the file name yourself and pass it to exp. If you wanted to you could generate the command line through a SQL statement and then spool it out to a file i.e.
spool runexp.bat
select 'exp user/pwd@tns file='||TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DDMMYYYYHH24MI')||'.dmp tables=(table1,table2)' from dual;
spool offThe second option isn't as flexible as the first but if it's just a couple of exports you have to do, it will probably prove to be less work

Reg importing exported ccsexport files from 9.3.1 into 11.1.2.1

Hi,
I have exported cssimportexport.properties file of hyperion system 9.3.1
Now i have exported .csv files with the following names(export MSAD and export Native).
I want them to be moved into hyperion system 11.1.2.1 using LCM.
Pl. suggest me the steps to be followed in importing the .CSV files into my system 11.1.2.1.
Cheers
Praveen

The LCM documentation is available at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_lifecycle_management/launch.htm
Also if you are new to LCM then it is worth having a look at the following Oracle by Example which will take you through the steps - http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/hyp/PLN11.1.2_LCM/index.html
It may also be worth extracting some test provisioning out of your 11.1.2.1 environment first to make sure you have the format of the file correct.
Cheers

Create a test DB from the export DMP file

Hi Gurus,
I was able to create the DMP file by export and transfer it to the test machine. It is a Windows OS.
Now in this machine I recently installed Oracle 11g. And I have this export *.DMP file in a dir.
I need to import the DMP file which into this newly created database to give a test database in 11g.
I also created the user for which the export is done.
I need to know how to import the DMP file. I am new to this import-export business.
Thanks
Amitava.

Thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure if you understood my point correctly.
I didn't exactly mean to use my iPod as a USB memory stick.
What I meant was that if I copied the contents of my iPod to a DVD and if something weird happened to my music player and I would have to format it...
Could I then just copy the files (I had burned on the DVD) back to my iPod and it would be the same as before? My music would be saved?

But for backup recovery operation you should be use rman(recover manager),and through enterprise manager you can schedule backup job.

Export text files

Hi
I need to export text files delimited by '|', but our data is very large, i want to know if i can use some database utility.
would you help me with this problem ?
Felix Ramirez.

The quickest and easiest approach is to use SQL*Plus.
spool "someFile.txt"
SELECT col1 || '|' || col2 || '|' || col3
FROM someTablewill generate a pipe-delimited text file called someFile.txt. Depending on the size of your data and the nature of the query (i.e. do you need to do this with a bunch of different queries), and the timing constraints, you could also write a simple JDBC or OCI application to dump the data. I seem to recall Tom Kyte having a script on asktom.oracle.com that will use utl_file to dump a delimited text file, but that's going to be the slowest option.

Changes in export cmd file

Hi Guru's,
The offline backup job was not run last Sunday at 7am until I triggered it manually at 1pm.
So,
1. i Always want to keep 2 set dump files
a. Before exporting / dumping, move the previous dump file to “Spider Dump Backup set 1” folder and delete the existing dump copy in the “Spider Dump Backup set 1” folder.
2. Email notification to Spider Support after job completion
Below is my export cmd file. Can someone help me to make changes accordingly.
@echo off
@echo ---- exp_full.cmd ------ START ---------------------
REM
REM Kjører full eksport av Oracle database

SET EXPDEST=G:\

@echo ---- exp_full.cmd ------ FERDIG ---------------------

Pl post details of OS and database versions. Pl be aware that exports are not backups. For backups, you should be using RMAN

Getting Datapump Export Dump file to the local machine

I apologize to everyone as this is a duplicate post.
Re: Getting Datapump Export Dump file to the local machine
My initial thread(started yesterday)was in 'Database General' and didn't get much response today. Where do i post questions on EXPORT/IMPORT utilities?
Anyway, here is my problem:
I want to take the export dump of itemrep schema in orcl database (in a remote machine). I have an Oracle server (10G Rel2) running in my local Windows machine. I have created a user john with necessary EXPORT/IMPORT privileges in my local db. Then i created a Directory object,ie a folder named datapump in my local hard drive and granted READ WRITE privileges to john.
So john, who is a user in my local machine's oracle db is going to run the expdp utility.
expdp john/jhendrix@my_local_db_alias SCHEMAS=itemrep directory=datapump logfile=itemrepexp.log
The above command will fail because it will look for itemrep schema inside my local db, not the remote db where the itemprep is actually located. And you can't qualify the schemaname with its db in the SCHEMAS parameter (like SCHEMAS=itemrep@orcl).
Can anyone provide me a solution for this?

I think you can initiate the datapump exp utility from your client machine to export a schema in a remote database.But, Upon execution,oracle looks for the directory in the remote database and not on your local machine.
You're inovoking expdp from a client (local DB) to export data from a remote DB.
So, With this method, you can create the dumpfiles only on the Remote server and not on the local Machine.
You can perform a direct import instead of export using the NETWORK_LINK option.
Create a DBlink from your local and Remote DB and verify the connection.
Then,Initiate the Impdp from Your local machine DB using the parameter network_link=<db_link of the Remote DB> to import the schema.
The advantage of this option eliminates the Dumpfile creation at the Server side.
There are no dumpfiles during the import process. the Data is imported directly to the target schema.
