Export whole database metadata only.

I would like to export an entire DB metadata . I want to exclude data.
is it possible.
We have 100+users.
We get request to restore package from their schema very often.
So I am thinking of creating job to emport an entire DB metadata .

Hi,
Since you used Data Pump, restoring a single package body is certainly possible. Like it was mentioned before in this thread, you need to drop the package body before running your import. The import command I would use would be something like:
impdp system/manager schemas=<owner of the package body> include=PACKAGE_BODY:" = '<package_body_name>'" ...
It is easiest if you put the include statement in a parameter file so you don't have to worry about escaping the single and double quotes.
Hope this helps.

  • Exporting whole database (10GB) using Data Pump export utility

    Hi,
    I have a requirement that we have to export the whole database (10GB) using Data Pump export utility because it is not possible to send the 10GB dump in a CD/DVD to the system vendor of our application (to analyze few issues we have).
    Now when i checked online full export is available but not able to understand how it works, as we never used this data pump utility, we use normal export method. Also, will data pump reduce the size of the dump file so it can fit in a DVD or can we use Parallel Full DB export utility to split the files and include them in a DVD, is it possible.
    Please correct me if i am wrong and kindly help.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    You need to create a directory object.
    sqlplus user/password
    create directory foo as '/path_here';
    grant all on directory foo to public;
    exit;
    then run you expdp command.
    Data Pump can compress the dumpfile if you are on 11.1 and have the appropriate options. The reason for saying filesize is to limit the size of the dumpfile. If you have 10G and are not compressing and the total dumpfiles are 10G, then by specifying 600MB, you will just have 10G/600MB = 17 dumpfiles that are 600MB. You will have to send them 17 cds. (probably a few more if dumpfiles don't get filled up 100% due to parallel.
    Data Pump dumpfiles are written by the server, not the client, so the dumpfiles don't get created in the directory where the job is run.

  • Export whole database with all stored data

    how can i export the whole database with all tables, sequences, views etc to a textfile and then import it again? it should contain all availabe data.
    thank you.

    Joshua,
    You can use the Data Pump import and export utilities to export and import an entire database (or traditional import and export utilities if pre-10g database).

    The export is not to a text file, though.

  • Duplicating a database - metadata only

    Hi
    I want to create an automated script that will run weekly and will duplicate our production database but WITHOUT data
    I know there are several ways to do it - but they are quite combersome
    I would like to be able to change the datafile path ( similar to the convert we have in RMAN duplicate )
    Is there an elegant way this can be done ?
    or am I destined to the import datapump option ?
    We are running Oracle 10.2.0.4 Sun Solaris
    Thanks

    OrnaHi Orna
    As it was said above, it's impossible to duplicate only metadata of database using RMAN
    You have two choices:
    - Using Data Pump, backup only structure of objects of your database
    - Write an automatic script which generates bulk of scripts using DBMS_METADATA package
    P.S. The first is simplest and suggested

  • Tablespace Restore From Whole Database Backup

    Hi
    I tooks whole database backup.
    BACKUP DATABASE;
    Note:- No saperate tablespaces backup.
    After that, if required I use to restore saprate tablespace from above backup.
    RESTORE TABLESPACE tb_1;
    RECOVER TABLESPACE tb_1;
    Is this tecnique recomanded or not?
    Wishes
    Jawad

    There's no need to recover the whole database, if only one component has a failure. Tablespace recovery will only work, if the database runs in archivelog mode.

  • How to export and import on another computer whole database connection

    Hi
    how to export and import on another computer whole database connection with all contents ?
    step by step

    From the "source" computer do this:
    1) Open SQLDeveloper.
    2) Right click on the main connections node and choose export connections.
    3) Select the connections you want exported and choose a file name and location to save them.
    4) Save the file by clicking OK then copy it to the destination PC.
    On the "destination" PC assuming you have already installed SQLDeveloper do this:
    1) Open SQLDeveloper.
    2) Right click on the main connections node and choose import connections.
    3) Browse to the connections file you copied earlier and select the connection you saved.
    4) Complete the import by clicking OK and you are done.
    Mind that this is sufficient only if you have only basic connections, if you have TNS connections you will also need to manually copy the Tnsnames file from the "source" PC to the "destination" PC and set the
    Tools -> Preferences -> Database -> Advanced Tnsnames directory
    to the directory where you copied the Tnsnames file.

  • Db Export when database is in read only mode

    Thanks.Check the log file, if you haven't got any error, then it's valid
    BTW - Why you've taken full export of the database? Why not using RMAN?

  • How can recover database using only Full Export ?

    Hi,
    I have one query , i have only Full export is given database , after full export sucessfully
    database Crash by mistacally, how can recover it, i have only export is given no backup is taken (RMAN,COLD or HOT) statergy is use , How can recover it.

    You need to recreate the database from scratch as imp requires a working database.
    You could already do this by transforming the results from
    'alter database backup controlfile to trace', a trace file containing a 'create controlfile' statement, into a 'create database' script.
    After that step you apply your import. Everything after that import is lost forever.
    One would ask for a sanity check of management and personell of a company, which has no backup strategy in place.

  • Exporting metadata only

    Hi,
    I'm a relativley unexperienced Lightroom user. I'm helping my parents edit a huge number of family photos and need to share changes across continenants. I have nearly 2000 photos I've flagged, rated and edited. My parents have the same images on a computer, but they have the original unedited scans. The filenames are the same on my computer as theirs. They also have access to LR.
    Instead of uploading massive amounts of data to send all the image files to them, can I export the metadata only, which they can then load and sync up with their copies of the images to be able to see what I've done?
    Thank you so much for any help! I feel like this is possible and have seen what appeared to be a reference to it, but I haven't been able to find any definitive explanation or directions.
    Jim
    ps: In case it makes a difference: When I look at the files in Finder, the filetype is *.jpg. Also, I have an old copy of LR 3. If it is something I can only do in the current version, I may be able to scrounge up money for an upgrade.

    Hey guys, thanks very much for the quick responses. The flags are an important part of the deal since I have hundreds of them that I used to quickly mark which photos might be best for the final edited/polished collection and which could just be archived as is.
    So, if sharing the catalog is the only way to share the flags, that will be the best way...except I’ll have to work out the version discrepancy. I’ll confirm, but my dad normally keeps current versions of all software.
    If I can get myself upgraded, is the export/import catalogs process pretty easy?
    i have all the photos in a folder which has several subfolders. Do I just r-click on that folder and select “export this folder as a catalog”?
    And then how would my parents sync that up to their folder? (Their folder, to the best of my knowledge, has exactly the same directory structure and files in it.)
    Thanks!

  • Export full database

    How does export full database work in data-pump .Does it also exports system and sysaux tablespaces or only all schema data and related metadata.

    DataPump is a logical export, so it works with DB objects - schemas, tables, views, etc.
    So when you perform full export - then all info from sys/system and other users is exported to the dump

  • Is it possible to make the entire keywords hierachy export in the metadata?

    I have created the following Keyword hierarchy in Aperture:
    Location, Europe, Eastern Europe, Croatia, Dalmatia, Split
    In Aperture I only need to add the bottom level 'Split' as a keyword and when I use the search function and insert a word from any of the higher levels (e.g. Croatia) It finds my picture.
    My problem is that when I export that file the Keywords that get exported in the metadata is only the bottom level I first entered (ie Split). This is no use to me when using the files outside of aperture as I may still want to search at the higher levels.
    Is there anyway to make the entire relevant keyword hierarchy be exported within the metadata without have to go back and add all the levels myself?

    Unless things have changes, keywords are not hierarchical at all as a standard. The hierarchy in Ap is used just for managing keyword purposes only.
    So it works within Ap but not when exported. You will have to assign multiple keywords or reestablish similar scheme in whatever other app that your are exporting the image to.
