Import whole database from 9.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.1

Hi all,
We are tried to change the database server from 9.2.0.4 Enterprise to 10g Express Edition.
I export the data file using exp with full=y and then I tried to import the dmp file with imp full=y
The result is that a lot of error is popup
So I tried to use impdp to do the import. And the result shows
ORA-39001: invalid argument value
ORA-39000: bad dump file specification
ORA-39143: dump file XXXXXXX may be an original export dump file
I need guidelines to import our dmp file. Can anyone give us some direction for that?
Thank you for your help
[EDITED]
I have found that for dmp file that is exported by old "exp" command cannot be imported to 10g database by using "impdp" command. The reason that "imp" fails in our case is that I have not created tablespace and users (I expect oracle will help us to do that)
After I create tablespace and users, it can import the data without errors (but there are some warnings, need to check)
I do not understand why I have to add the users. There may be thousands of users and I have not their password. But if I do not add the users, the imp will show that there does not exist the user

Refer metalink note 316889.1
Since you are on 9.2.0.4 already, you can use DBUA directly for this upgrade.

Importing the Database from 10.2.0.4 to 11.1.0.7 w/o system Tablespaces.

Hi DBAs,
I need to import a database from 10.2.0.4 (RHEL 5.1) to 11.1.0.7 (RHEL 5.1). At source database there are 3 schemas with many defined roles for which I am interested in. I tried to do exp/imp at schema level but there were many defined roles and permissions which were giving IMP as well ORA error. If I do the Full database exp/imp , it is also importing the system/sysaux TS as well DBSNMP etc schemas which I dont want.
Please advise in above scenario, how should I import these schemas to the target which is running Oracle 11g.
Thanks
-Samar-

You can do this also
1. Export 3 schemas with grants=y rows=N and import the data schema structure with grants
2.Check the log file for missing roles and create those roles using from dba_role_privs..etc
3. Import the data ignore=y option
Hope this helps

Importing the database from ocs 9 to ocs 10.1.2

I am working on setting up oracle collaboration suite 10g at work, and we have a seperate version of oracle collaboration suite 9i running now. I was wondering if I could import the database tables from ocs 9i into ocs 10g. If that is possible would I then have all the mail, files and lists that have been created on the old ocs server in the new ocs server.. If it is not possible do I then have to manually create new post lists, move mail with imap2imap and what about the files that are stored now on the previous version of ocs?

Hi Andreas.
No, I did not post this question before, but I did post a question about transfering the migration tool that is refered to in the oracle collaboration manuals. Unfortunately, the tool refered too is not readily available and I ended up looking for it for more than two days.
I could not upgrade because we are switching hardware and the upgrade referred to in the installation manuals is an inplace upgrade, which is not a possiblity because of our decision to migrate to a better hardware platform. Thank you for taking time to answer my enquiry.

How do I stop iPhoto 11 from making duplicates when importing whole library from an older MAC?

I just bought a Mac Mini, and i tried to import the iphoto library from my PowerMac G5 (iPhoto 6). It duplicates many of the photos so that there more than twice as many photos in the new machine. I was looking at the photos and some of the duplicates are just resized photos. I guess older versions of photos.
Is there a way to just import the latest versions of photos?
Thanks,
Tony

No it's not a good idea.
Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things, deleting them or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
Don't use copy and paste, try drag and drop.
If that still fails then rebuild the Library to the new location:
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Importing Database from SQL Server into Oracle 8i

Hello Friends,
Cuurentlly we are using SQL Server as our application database, Now we want to switch on at Oracle 8i,bcz of some problems,
If anybody had done so,then please help me in solving this problem,
I wana Import whole database from SQL server to Oracle
Lot of thanks

Hi,
Use the SQL Server Enterprise Manager to export all the tables from SQL to oralce.
When selecting the target database use the Oracle native driver (the name is not on top of my head) and not the ODBC one.
You will have problems with datatypes. Make sure to edit the mappings for the proper datatype if required.
If you have ntext columns, make sure they are translated to CLOB and not long.

How to import a table from another database using DB toolset.

Hello All
I would like to import a table from one database to another using DB toolbox.
I do not want to import all data to LV and then save them to another database. Instead I would prefer to use SQL syntax.
Does anobody know how to write SQL command to import whole table from one database to another?
I have found in some SQL manual that INSERT INTO should work, but JET4 returns an error that table (e.g. c:\mydatabase\table1) can not be found.
Thanks in advance
Pawel

if i don't have TEST table on server B whether COPY command will create this table on server B with the same structure ? If you specify CREATE as a clause the table will be created:
SQL> help copy
COPY
COPY copies data from a query to a table in a local or remote
database. COPY supports CHAR, DATE, LONG, NUMBER and VARCHAR2.
COPY {FROM database | TO database | FROM database TO database}
            APPENDCREATE|INSERT|REPLACE} destination_table
            [(column, column, column, ...)] USING query
where database has the following syntax:
     username[password]@connect_identifier

Import the whole database

Hi everyone.
I am using database 7.3.2.
I exported the whole database and I want to import the whole database from the exported file.
please could anyone provide me with the steps to import the whole database and what should I do in **details**.
bye.

Hi,
what should I do exactly before I start importing my database, should I drop all the users or what exactly please.The exact steps depend on your database, used objects and so on. You have to try it in a development environment first. Doing so will probably yield some problems - or none if you are lucky. In addition to that you will know the required timeframe for export and import.
If you just want to get rid of chained rows you might try "alter table move" or "create table as select"; but i dont know if these were available in 7.3 (most probably 7.3 was release prior my birth ^^)

IPhoto importing other databases

Hi,
I'm considering to switch to Apple once they release a G5 type of computer with Intel micros and I imagine there are very high chances that I will end up using iPhoto to organize my pictures.
At the moment I do not have any database to organize them and my pictures are getting out of hand so I thought I would need to get a picture organizer for my current Windows computer but before doing that I would like to check if iPhoto can import any database from another app so that I do not have to redo all keywords when I switch.
I've been looking in the forums and faqs with no luck and Apple does not have an online version of iPhoto's user manual. Could somebody help me with this question?
Thanks,
Alejandro

Alejandro:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. In addition to Sam's comments I'll add that any keywords or comments you might try to add to your photos on your PC will not be carried over to iPhoto. It copies the photos into it's own unique folder system and you have to add the keywords, etc. once it's in iPhoto.
Here are two Apple KB documents that you should be aware of, particularly the second one:
iPhoto Library Description
Don't tamper with files in the iPhoto Library folder from the Finder
Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.

Importing 817 Database into 806

I need to Import a database from version 817 into version 806.
Can anyone provide a method/procedures for exporting from 817 then importing to 806?
The documentation on Oracle's web site has a lot of migration paths but not this particular one.
I'd appreciate any suggestions I can get.
Thanks,
Jesse

You have to use the export utility of the older version in order to create your dump file. A dump created using a newer version of export can never be imported into an older version of database.
In your case, use the 8.0.6 export utility and connect to your 8.1.7 database using SQL*Net to run your export. Then you can use 8.0.6 import to import it into the 8.0.6 database.
If you have access to Metalink the following doc details the compatibility matrix for export/import: doc. id. 132904.1.

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.

Finding whole mapping from database file - filesystems - logical volume manager - logical partitions

Hello,
Trying to make reverse engeneering of database files and their physical carriers on logical partitions ( fdisk ).
And not able to make whole path from filesystem down to partitions with intermediate logical volumes.
1. select from dba_data_files ...
2. df -k
to get the listing of filesystems
3. vgdisplay
4. lvdisplay
5. cat /proc/partitions
6. fdisk /dev/sda -l
   fdisk /dev/sdb -l
Problem I have is that not able to determine which partitions are consisten in logical volumes. And then which logical volumens are consisted in filesystem.
Thank you for hint or direction.

Hello Wadhah,
Before start the discussion let me explain I am newcommer to Oracle Linux. My genetic with dba experience of Oracle is from IBM UNIX ( AIX 6.1 ) and Oracle 11gr2.
First task is to get the complete picture of one database on Oracle Linux for future maintenance tasks and make database more flexible and
preparing for more intense work:
-adding datafiles,
-optimize/replace archive redolog files on separated filesystem from ORACLE_BASE
- separating auditing log files from $ORACLE_BASE to own filesystem
- separating diag directory on separated file system ( logging, tracing )
- adding/enlarging TEMP ts
- adding/enlarging undo
- enlarging redo for higher transaction rate ( to reduce number of switched per time perceived in alert_SID.log )
- adding online redo and control files mirrors
So in this context try to inspect content of the disk space from the highest logical level in V$, DBA views down to fdisk partitions.
The idea was to go in these steps:
1. select paths of present online redo groups, datafiles, controlfiles, temp, undo
   from V$, dba views
2. For the paths got from the step 1
   locate filesystems and for those filesystems inspect which are on logical volumens and which are directly on partitions.
3. For all used logical volumes locate the logical partitions and their disks /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, ...
