Imp full in a populated db.

Hi all.
I have a full export of my production db and I like to import to the development db in order to have the same data. I want to know If I can do the import full directly or I must delete the users or the object in the shcemas that are already created.
What happend with tablespaces? Must I create them before doing the import?
Oracle version: 9.2.0.6.0
I made an export full of the devel db.
Thanks in advance.

Well ,it depends upon many factors.
What happend with tablespaces? Must I create them before doing the import?
If tablespaces are already there then there is no need to worry. But you have to have enough free space and/or keep them in auto extend mode and arrange for enough free space on the disk. But if some tablespaces are new, then you must create them before starting the import.
Users are not the problem. It will just give an error if the user is already existing, otherwise create it.
About the data and tables, as Nicolas already said, if there are no constraints on the tables, it might result in duplicate data.
Also you have to use ignore=Y to ignore the object creation errors and allow insertion of data into the tables that are already existing in the database.

  • WGM Home directory full path not populating properly

    I'm setting up WGM with mobility as all of my network users are on laptops. For some reason some of the users are working and others not. When I try to log in with some I just get told that the user couldn't log on because an error occured. As far as I can work out this is because the home directory for the user on the network can't be found and so a local one can't be created either.
    The only difference I can see between the users (bearing in mind this is a brand new network set up so I haven't made many changes) is that for the users that do work when I select the SharePoint I want to use under the home tab in user settings, the Full Path has ...er ...well the full path in it: /network/servers/mynetwork/Volumes/myharddrive/myfolder/myuser
    whereas ones that don't work just have the folder name: myuser
    This not only happens when I use the auto populated list as well as when I create one from scratch.

    You're right, DNS implementation in Leopard server is very poor, especially considering how critical it is.
    Time Machine for every user is a bit of a tricky one - I've been thrashing this one out in another thread, and there is an answer, but it's not ideal.
    Here's the thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2034769&start=0&tstart=0
    The answer on how to do it is at the end of the thread, but make sure Time Machine isn't used as the only method of Disaster Recovery on a corporate network, it's really only good for a useful extra.
    As for an internal and external DNS server, the answer I'm afraid is "not really". The way you have it set up is pretty good, from a redundancy point of view. However, if you have to use an external DNS server, it's always going to be slower, because of the extra distance over slower links that the DNS request has to travel.
    Bear in mind, it has to go through your router and/or firewall, all the way out to a busy DNS server somewhere out on the net (probably over a number of routers on the way), then it has to come back the same way before your client can actually resolve the URL to an IP address.
    Compare that to internal where it has to travel a matter of metres over a (I assume) 100mbps network to a DNS server that's not processing very many requests.
    The only workaround I could suggest would be to employ a second DNS server (perhaps a proxy?) within your network assuming you can separate it from whatever causes your primary DNS server to go down. The costs aren't prohibitive - you could do it on a Mac Mini + cost of a second Leopard Server license.
    Oh, and your English is just fine, lol.

  • Imp full db successful with warnings

    Looking for options to fix those , or can i ignore them? What would be side effect if i drop/cascade users and re-run imp after increasing tablespace TS_PUBLIC size or i should not do that? and just fix the little warnings or even just ignore them?
    Most of tables (i would say 95% ) & there data imported successfully after full imp , db size is 80GB around, import terminated successfully with warnings , which are below.....
    IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 1659:

    IMP-00041: Warning: object created with compilation warnings
    "CREATE TRIGGER MT1758.MEDDRA_MT1758_THE_SYN_UPD"; I would suggest you to look at export log and find out which are the tables that got failed and import only those tables again. Since the size is quite high as you said.
    Secondly, since 95% tables are already import, so i suggest you to increase the Tablespace size by adding datafile or extending existing one, then run the import for rest 5% tables.
    Third, You said can you ignore warning? During import oracle tries to create Views, it first check if the tables from which view is being create are already exists or not. If the tables doesn't exists oracle will create view forcefully, and mark these view as invalid. The only way to make the views valid is to alter the views definition to point to the correct base tables.
    So there is little activity left after import is done with warning, that you have to alter the view definitions so that correct tables can be used.
    Also see MOS -> IMP-00041 ORA-04063 FROMUSER/TOUSER IMPORT INTO NEW DATABASE [ID 1059520.6]

    These types of errors are expected. The problem is that types and tables are created as the database gets created. As far as I know SYS owned objects are never exported/imported, but other schema objects are exported and imported. These types of errors are generally ok since the object exists in the target database when the database is created with certain objects.
    I'm not familar with this error:
    ORA-04052: error occurred when looking up remote object [email protected]

  • Exp/imp full or transportable tablespaces?

    Hi Experts,
    DB version: 10.2.0.4 64 bit enterprise edition
    OS version: Windows 2003 R2 64 bit
    here database moving from 10.2.0.4 enterprise edition to standard edition.
    i have went through metalink, i found
    *10G : Step by Step Procedure to Migrate from Enterprise Edition to Standard Edition [ID 465189.1]*
    *Converting An Enterprise Edition Database To Standard Edition [ID 139642.1]*
    so i have taken export of full database before that i have create a DBLINK & TABLES ,
    i have impoted into standard edition but i have missed those DBLINKS and grants will imported?
    Thanks.

    hi guru,
    my expectation is the entire database should pilot to new server with standard edition. i have read articles from metalink, as per traditional export/import is a better.
    By that process i tested,
    1) production database:-
    a)created some tables, one database link
    b) exp system/*** full=y file=exp.dmp log=exp.log
    2)another side, i have created a dummy database using DBCA, and created some tablespaces as exist in export side.
    a) imp system/*** full=y file=exp.dmp log=imp.log
    so after successful import, i have checked objects but i missed the DBLINK from production.
    1)my question is any other parameters should be process within import? to perform full export/import
    2)all the schemas will be imported or manully need to create?
    3)grants will be imported?
    4) what about constraints.
    ignore=y rows=n.i want to export rows also(entire database)

  • Exp/Imp full database

    Hello guys,
    I'm having an issue with importing full database from one database(machine 1) to another database (machine2).
    I am getting errors that users don't exist, datafile cannot be read etc errors.
    I'm using Windows, and Oracle 9.2.0.6
    How can I export the 'create objects' scripts from the source db that can run on the target db?
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Bharath

    thank you. I actually sorted it out. The path of the datafiles in the source database is not present for the target database. So I created a similar path but kept no datafiles in it.
    the import ran successfully and created the users and tablespaces as well.
    thanks again

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition and Full Text Indexing

    Hello, we have recently upgraded our web front end server from SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition) to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition (in conjuction with upgrading our main production servers to SQL 2008 R2 Standard). We have 12 Databases on our production
    SQL Server that are replicated to our web frontend server to the SQL Express instance. One of these databases has a FULL TEXT INDEX. The production database is running the Adobe iFilter version 9 64Bit. The FULL TEXT CATALOG has been created and populated
    and performs searches as intended. However, upon replication, when using the search option on our web page based on that PDF iFilter, it no longer works. After examining the properties of the FULL TEXT CATALOG, we note that the Catalog size on the subscriber
    end is 0MB in size (whereas it is 3MB on the Publication side). Also the Unique Key Count on the subscriber side is '1' whereas on the publisher side it is 30,000+. After examining the FT Indexing logs on the subscriber side shows an error: "Warning: No appropriate
    filter was found during full-text index population" On the subscriber side which is running Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition, Adobe Reader 10.1.1 is installed (all 32Bit) with the Adobe iFilter AcroRdIF.dll. When running the SELECT
    * from sys.fulltext_document_types T-Sql statement, the list returned shows the PDF filter to be installed and shows the correct path. Under the System Environment Variables, that path has also been installed (from previous recommendations in researching this
    problem). After numerous reboots, service restarts and re-attempts to get the FT Daemon to crawl - no success. Can anyone please help with this problem? Is there something I am missing? In an attempt to work around this problem thinking there might be a version
    conflict between the 64Bit version on the publisher and the 32Bit version on the subscriber, I disabled the replication of the FULL TEXT CATALOG and tried to create a new catalog on the subscriber with the same results. Thank you for your answers in advance
    - Fustrated! Sorry, somehow this got posted originally under Server Design

    Hello Jeff hope your still out there.  I wrote this question 2 years ago and upgraded to SQL Express with advanced services.  Full Text replication worked until last week.  We are operating in a virtual environment.  My publisher box
    is a Windows Server 2008 R2 (64bit) with SQL Server Standard Edition.  My Web front subscriber is a Windows 2003 R2 (32bit) Server with SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP1 with Advanced Services. Now the exact same thing is happening after 2+ years. 
    We are looking for possible updates that might have broken this but I am stretching that.  Any clues please?  32bit vs. 64bit?

  • Adobe PDF iFilter SQL Server 2008 R2 Full Text not working

    Unable to get the SQL Server 2008 R2 to index PDF files for full-text searching.
    Environment: Windows 7 SP1 Enterprise 64-bit, SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP3 64-bit, Adobe Reader 11.x
    Installed PDF iFilter 64 (11.0.01) from

    Added its folder (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe PDF iFilter 11 for 64-bit platforms\bin\;) to the PC system Path variable. Rebooted PC.
    Confirmed SQL Server sees the Adobe PDF iFilter ..... SELECT * from sys.fulltext_document_types where document_type = '.pdf' 
    Inserted PDF files to my table (see below for CREATE statement).

    Some columns of the row were not indexed.
    Installed other filters for Office. Added files of type DOC, XPS. Confirmed the search query works for those file types. So as such SQL Full-Text is enabled and working.

  • Full import error : "user does not exists"

    Hi all,
    I had 5 separated windows based servers (32bit) with oracle database 9i. I decided to centralize them into one server. So, I configured a new Linux (64bit) and install an Oracle 10gR2. Then I configured a starter database with dbca. I prepared a full dump file from one of old servers and successfully full imported it into starter database on new Linux (10g) server. After that I configured another database using dbca. But when I wanted to full import the previous dump file into new database I have got the error "user does not exists" regarding some demo schema and import terminated unsuccessfully.
    I decided to create users regarding the errors and restart the import. After each user creation I was getting a new error for a new user account.
    My main question is why first time import terminated successfully without any error but second one in new database raised error?
    Thank

  • IMP Problem - Synonyms missing

    Sir,
    I am doing an IMPORT. Database - 9.2.0.1.0 OS:Windows 2000

    Hi,
    >>Import is working fine. The PROBLEM is, there are some synonyms in SLIDE schema, that is not getting imported.
    Are you sure ? Is not possible create a synonym with same name as object.
    USER01@ORACLE10> create synonym test for user01.test;
    create synonym test for user01.test
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01471: cannot create a synonym with same name as objectThen, In which user these synonyms were created ?
    Did you imported this user ? What imp full command did you type ?
    Cheers

  • How to imp database for a recover

    Hi Experts,
    We have a database as oracle10G R4 in 32 bit window.
    I makk a full database exp as a backup.
    At the present, i find some data file is missing in user dev tablespace.
    My question, we do not have a schema or tablespace exp dump file.
    For exiting DB, Do we need to drop all tablesapce (include sys tbs) and recreate tablespaces for imp full database recover?
    Thanks for help!
    JIM

    Hi,
    If you have a full database export, you can perform a full, table, schema, or tablespace import from this. If you want to just recover a tablespace, then you would want
    1. drop that tablespace from the database
    2. create the tablespace as you want it
    3. run import with a tablespace filter:
    impdp user/password directory=your_dir dumpfile=your_dumpfiles tablespace=your_tablespace ...
