Import Utility Without Duplication

I planning to export one Schema from an Oracle database (let say DB1) and I want to import it into another Oracle database (let say DB2). However, DB2 already has the exported Schema along with its contents (Tables and its data/records), but the data/records in the Tables is/are old. Therefore I want to import the data from DB1 into DB2 while ensuring that there will be no duplication in DB2, is that possible?
The reason for that because the mentioned Schema contains more than 1000 tables and it will be a hassle for me clearing all corresponding tables in DB2 before using the import utility.
I am running Oracle 9i R2 on Windows 2000 Server for both DBs.

If data already exists at the target database, or at least the empty table, when you attempt to import to it you will receive duplicate rows since you must issue the import command with the IGNORE=Y clause.
You should clear all 1000 tables prior to performing the import, this is not a big deal, you don't have to manually do it, you can create a sql script out of sql to perform the truncate table command prior to performing the import.
One more option you have is to export with the query clause, if it is possible to find a key that let you find the subset of new rows at the source database, such as a primary key or an insert date column.
If you have primary keys on all target tables, then you can issue the import with the IGNORE=Y option, there will be plenty of errors at the time you perform the import, but these errors can be ignored as long as they refer to duplicated rows rejected by the primary key enforcement.
Another option is to evaluate using the merge command through db links.

    My approach would be, when you first generate the questions put them in a List. Then use java.util.Collections.shuffle(List) to randomize the List.

  • Import photos without copying? I Have thousands of photos on a hard drive separate from my mac and i dont have enough space on my mac to copy them to. Any way to import without copying to the local hard drive?

    Import photos without copying? I Have thousands of photos on a hard drive separate from my mac and i dont have enough space on my mac to copy them to. Any way to import without copying to the local hard drive?

    Yes, but you might want to think carefully about it.
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
    This is an attractive option for some users at face value, but it contains a significant number of issues that you might want to consider before making the decision to run a Referenced Library
    How to do it:
    iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck the box at 'Copy items to the iPhoto Library'
    Now when you import iPhoto makes an alias in the Library Package that points to the stored file. Note: iPhoto still creates a thumbnail of the image and it makes a Preview of edited photos inside the Library Package.
    Issues?
    1. You are responsible for file management. That's more work:
    You must first move the files from your camera to the storage location before importing.
    If you want to delete files then you must first trash them from iPhoto and then afterwards find them in your storage and trash them.
    Thereafter, you cannot move the files on early versions of iPhoto at all, on iPhoto 08 and later you may move them on the same Volume or Disk. If you move them to a new volume or disk the aliases my break. If they are on an different volume and you move them the aliases will break.
    You cannot rename the files.
    Migrating: moving to a new machine, moving the files to another disk are all a lot more complex.
    2. You gain no extra functionality from running a Referenced Library. Nothing. This is just storage. You still manage the files via iPhoto. You edit them with iPhoto or via iPhoto's External Editor setting, otherwise you're changes will not be available in iPhoto. You don't save  byte of storage space.
    3.  If you have the Library on one volume and the photos on another you if anything changes in the path to a file (Like if you upgrade your machine, move the files on the NAS or on to another one?) then the alias will break, and you'll have to repair it manually. For every photo in the Library. One at a time.
    Why do you want to run a Referenced Library?
    Because my photos won't fit on my HD?
    You can run a Managed library from an external disk. Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    You're worried about accessing the files?
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Can I sync my ical on iCloud AND put on iMac without duplication

    I want keep my iCal in sync with my other devices and so I use the Cloud.
    but I also want to keep my calendar on my iMac without it disappearing
    after few months.... Diary per se that I can look back to .. Years..
    Can I make an event on my iMac and the iCloud without duplication?

    Hey!
    It works again!
    I've looked into the LIBRARY of my IMac and delted all Caches of ICal.
    But beware that you don't delete things, which are important, like your calenders.
    Library - Calenders - Calender Sync Changes - I've only delted all things in this folder. (Also in the Trash)
    Then I've restarted my Computer.
    In the folder Calenders are also all Calenders saved, don't delete them, cause, what you've deleted is away!
    Delete only the Things in the folder: Calender Sync Changes

  • Import Statement without ID Specification

    There is an import statement
    IMPORT tab g_acc_tab FROM MEMORY.
    While UCChecking it.. it saying that
    import statement without id specification is only used for the sake of r/2 ......
    Can i Comment it ? If so won't my application  go into dump while running on 6.0cc???

    It has to do with packages. Most java classes are in a package, the name of which must conform to its place on the filesystem relative to the classpath. By that I mean that if you have com.mystuff.One.java, it must be in a folder com/mystuff where com is located somewhere in the classpath.
    What you've done is a little different. I'm assuming a couple of things:
    1. you have no package declaration at the top of one.java or two.java
    2. you have the current directory "." in your classpath.
    Java has the concept of the "default package", which covers classes without a declared package, and in your case is the current directory.
    So when you're in c:\sourcefolder and run the compiler, then "."="c:\sourcefolder", and that directory is part of the default package. No import statements are necessary for classes that are in the same package. This is why two.java can call methods in one.java without an import statement.
    When you run your jsp, the "current directory" part of your classpath is not c:\sourcefolder, but some other value (probably the directory you start your jsp engine from) You will have to import all non-java-library classes because the jsp itself becomes a java class, with a package that is determined by the jsp engine.

  • I have an old project with AVCHD clips and I want to import the clips again with surround sound. How can I relink the project clips to the re-imported ones without doing the project from the begining?

    I have an old project with AVCHD clips and I want to import the clips again with surround sound. How can I relink the project clips to the re-imported ones without doing the project from the begining?
    I have a sony handicam and I imported the clips to iMovie and they lost quality and converted the audio to stereo. I want to import the project to final cut X and import the AVCHD in 1080p and surround sound and export the movie in bluray. Can I relink the clips without editing everything again?

    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
    Photos that were synced from a computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. If you want to remove them all then normally you could just sync an empty folder (in terms of photos) to the iPad, but as you don't want to sync at the moment you can't do that.
    You can reset the iPad back to factory settings and start from scratch with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings

  • Problems with VLM Import Utility

    Hello!
    We I are using NI Volume License Manager 3.0 together with NI Volume License Manager Import Utility for importing users data.
    The problem is that we can't import .xml data into VLM when the user types his name into Full Name field and his name contains characters like ČŠĆŽĐ čšćžđ. These characters are not correctly written into .xml file with VLM Import Utility and we have to manually replace them with Microsoft Expression Web before we can load .xml file into VLM server.
    Do you have better solution? Is there some new version of NI Volume License Manager Import Utility that correctly handles non English characters?

  • Import utility for Security

    Hi,
    If you use the CSSimportexport utility, update the importexport.properties file with your environment details.
    Set it up to read in .csv
    In the csv enter the users you want to remove from groups e.g.
    #group_children                    
    id     group_id     group_provider     user_id     user_provider
    EssGroup               testuser     Native Directory
    so the id field has the group name, the user_id has the user name you want to remove from the group
    In the importexport.properties file make sure you have the following.
    # The import operation to perform.
    # Options are: CREATE, UPDATE, CREATE/UPDATE and DELETE
    import.operation=delete
    Cheers

  • Doubt on import utility

    I want to export data from 10g release 2 database and import it into the 11g database . The database structure varies ie most of the schemas thati need to import are new ones which dont exist in the 11g database.
    When I do a full database export from 10g db and then do a full database import into 11g db using datapump import I face many errors like

    Failing sql is:
    GRANT WRITE ON DIRECTORY "LOG_FILE_DIR" TO "SH"So should I create the users in the target db before running the import since there are hundereds of new users and creating users will be a hectic job or did i commit any mistake in running the import utility ?

  • Syntax for datapump import utility (If data exists ignore table.)

    I am trying to import 2 DMP files of the same schema with different data in the tables.

    Steps are
    1. Create material master with valuation type import duty free
    2. Create vendor master for foreign currency with schema group for imports
    3. Create info record(default valuation type as IMP-DF)
    Note :
    Maintain exchange rate for "EUR" currency for exchange rate type EURX.
    Maintain exchange rate for required currency in exchange rate table using OB08
    4. Create import purchase order with exchange rate for currency.
    5. Usual condition types as import but no duties to capture.
    6. Pay freight or landing charges using FI vendor invoice using FB60.
    7. No need to do commerical invoice(MIRO) for paying customs duties
    8. Do migo,system will prompt for commerical inv. no. & year,Keep it blank do n't enter anything.
    9. In excise tab of migo,select no excise entry.
    10. In MIRO,Do vendor invoice.

  • Import data without opening explorer built in Import visual button

    Hi
    How can I Import data without opening explorer. If I add Import button visual and click on it automatically opens explorer to chose exported file. But I already know location and name of  exported file so I don't want that explorer to appear.
    How can I do it?

    Hi I was thinking
    What about to have code for importing and exporting. for example:
    Import(DataName, location)
    Import(Collection1, "C:\User\Documents\Data\dataname")
    Export(DataName, location)
    Export(Collection1, "C:\User\Documents\Data\dataname")
    With this code we could easily add it into timerEnd behaviour and we could make automatic backup files
    Or
    We could add this into save button where we do editing of our collection and save it straight to backup file
    We could have the location and data name saved in local machine and call them in that import export code. This is exactly what I need if I want that data to be shared between multiple devices where all the data would be stored on server or
    shared folder
     And also for better user interface there should be a location picker (button visual) what would open explorer where we could chose the location instead of writing it down into an inputtext
    What do you thing about this? Would this work?
