Oracle 8i EXP ?

I've beed asked to run a full export of an Oracle 8i database (running a Windows 2000 server). Is it possible to specify where the dmp file will be created in this version. I know from 10g onwards, I can use the
Create or Replace directory expdp_dir as '***'
But I believe, I cant use this for an Oracle 8i Db. If not, where about's does the dump file (by default) gets placed..

My bad.  I was using tahiti as my portal, and it only listed 10 and 11.
My bad x 2.  Double checking tahiti, I see 8 and 9 down at the bottom of the list.  10 and 11 are listed as "Oracle Database (version)", while 8 and 9 are listed simply as "Oracle (version)".  Since the stuff at the top of the list is in the general format of "Oracle <product> <version>"  I thought all of the database docs would be under "Oracle Database ..." and so didn't search further.

  • Oracle 10g exp error with query parameter

    Hi all,
    I am trying to perform an export but getting this error when using the query parameter. I think it's a syntax problem but not sure where.
    I'm in a dos prompt
    E:\>exp file=xxxxx.dmp log=xxxx.log tables=xxxxx query='where responseid not in (select responseid from aaaa_bbbbb)';

    Thx

    This is why I love this forum so much.
    I've probably done thousands of exports and never used the query parameter.
    Here's something that will help you. Please read and note the requirement to escape, or protect, special characters and such.

    Either create this tablspace or use the parfile to create the script of tables. Once scipt is created run these in database. then finally import with IGNORE=Y option
    If its the only table which you are importing, then create this table with above script by removing APOSTILLADATOS tablespace with someother existing tables. Then import dumpfile with IGNORE=Y option
    This will help

  • Oracle Imp/exp

    hi,
    I am trying to import emp.dmp which i have done through exp utility (exp vtprod/vtprod file=emp.dmp tables=(EMP) log=exp-emp.log)
    by using the following command
    imp vtprod/vtprod fromuser=vtprod touser=vtprod file=emp.dmp tables=(EMP) ignore=y commit=y log=imp-emp.log
    Question: Data is getting appended to the table emp, i wanted to truncate the table and insert..i dont want to append the data..what needs to be done during the import..
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    In conventional Import utility, there is no option to which will first truncate table and then reinsert into table. You need to do it manually before involing Import.
    YOu can check this with Import help.
    You can let Import prompt you for parameters by entering the IMP
    command followed by your username/password:
         Example: IMP SCOTT/TIGER
    Or, you can control how Import runs by entering the IMP command followed
    by various arguments. To specify parameters, you use keywords:
         Format:  IMP KEYWORD=value or KEYWORD=(value1,value2,...,valueN)
         Example: IMP SCOTT/TIGER IGNORE=Y TABLES=(EMP,DEPT) FULL=N
                   or TABLES=(T1:P1,T1:P2), if T1 is partitioned table
    USERID must be the first parameter on the command line.
    Keyword  Description (Default)       Keyword      Description (Default)
    USERID   username/password           FULL         import entire file (N)
    BUFFER   size of data buffer         FROMUSER     list of owner usernames
    FILE     input files (EXPDAT.DMP)    TOUSER       list of usernames
    SHOW     just list file contents (N) TABLES       list of table names
    IGNORE   ignore create errors (N)    RECORDLENGTH length of IO record
    GRANTS   import grants (Y)           INCTYPE      incremental import type
    INDEXES  import indexes (Y)          COMMIT       commit array insert (N)
    ROWS     import data rows (Y)        PARFILE      parameter filename
    LOG      log file of screen output   CONSTRAINTS  import constraints (Y)
    DESTROY                overwrite tablespace data file (N)
    INDEXFILE              write table/index info to specified file
    SKIP_UNUSABLE_INDEXES  skip maintenance of unusable indexes (N)
    FEEDBACK               display progress every x rows(0)
    TOID_NOVALIDATE        skip validation of specified type ids
    FILESIZE               maximum size of each dump file
    STATISTICS             import precomputed statistics (always)
    RESUMABLE              suspend when a space related error is encountered(N)
    RESUMABLE_NAME         text string used to identify resumable statement
    RESUMABLE_TIMEOUT      wait time for RESUMABLE
    COMPILE                compile procedures, packages, and functions (Y)
    STREAMS_CONFIGURATION  import streams general metadata (Y)
    STREAMS_INSTANTIATION  import streams instantiation metadata (N)
    The following keywords only apply to transportable tablespaces
    TRANSPORT_TABLESPACE import transportable tablespace metadata (N)
    TABLESPACES tablespaces to be transported into database
    DATAFILES datafiles to be transported into database
    TTS_OWNERS users that own data in the transportable tablespace set
    Import terminated successfully without warnings.Note: Destroy=y is not for this purpose. It is basically for datafile reuse option.
    This feature(truncate the table) has been introduced in the Datapump import in Oracle 10g.
    You can go through this.

  • To avoid duplicate rows in oracle 8i

    Can you suggest how to prevent duplicate rows while in situations where multiple refreshes from a single export file using Oracle 8.1.7?
    Do i need to specify Commit=Y, Constraints= N and IGNORE=N while importing data?
    Your suggestion would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    PK or not pk, if you set ignore=n, the import will be abort in case of table already exists, so you won't have any duplicate rows.

  • Oracle 10g express - post installation

    Hi All !
    I installed Oracle 10g exp. on my linux system (fedora core 4) yesterday. I am very new to both the linux os and oracle db. So I'm sure I messed up somewhere, though I can't figure out where....if anyone could help me....here is the problem
    installation was successful...I configured Oracle db with default http port:8080, listener: 1521 and the password.
    after installation I don't see oracle icons on my redhat menu. I tried opening in the browser with this
    http://(hostname):8080/htmldb and it does not bring up anything. I may be doing something wrong in looking up the hostname...here is the listener.log file....I'd appreciate if any1 could tell me what is wrong.

    I encountered this issue on my laptop and realized it was because I installed Oracle XE when connected via DHCP. I never manually specified a hostname so my install was burned with crazy DHCP hostnames which of course change every time I get onto my work network. So to fix it, I did the following:
    1. Hard set a hostname (Fedora Core 6 /etc/sysconfig/network + hostname command)
    2. Updated tnslistener.ora and tnsnames.ora to use the new hostname
    3. force-reload
    All good. JDBC connects, "service oracle-xe status" is good and the home page is back.

  • Oracle Database export and Import compression proportion

    Dear ALL,
    I have oracle 8i Exp dump file of 10gigs from Production database. For import it to development database, how much spare physical space is required to have on the dev machine ?
    Is there a compression proportion defind with each oracle version using exp or expdp utility ?
    Kindly help me understand. I tried to google but fail to see any firm reply.
    Kind Regards,

    The compress parameter of export doesn't work the way most think about it. Have a read,

  • Importing from 8 to oracle 10g

    how can i export oracle 8 data to oracle 10g

    Hi,
    There is two ways to do it.
    1) export from oracle 8 database and import in to oracle10g database
    2) export oracle 8 data from oracle 10g database by using tns alias and import in to the oracle 10g database.
    example: form oracle 10g database
         (tnsalias= for connect to oracle 8 from oracle 10g)
         exp system/XXXX@<tnsalias> file=xyz.dmp log=xyz.log ......

  • Oracle 10g Backup in Oracle 9i

    i have oracle 10g database and i take oracle 10g dmp backup from there. now i want to run it in oracle 9i, i gives error.
    How can i take the dmp backup which is compatiable in oracle 9i.

    hi,
    as told by maran
    the binadries are in bin .. you need oracle 9i binaries for that.. or try copying oracle 9i exp.exe to 10g bin... but don't do in production environment.
    try in your test.

  • Migrating Oracle 9.2.0.7  (32-bit) Windows to Oracle 11g R1 (64-bit) Linux

    The entire database is about 18 gig.

    I suggested Linux in '04 I came from an IBM z/os background and did not want Windows. Oh well.What "Oh well"?? I was commending you for moving away from Winows. ;-)
    I started my career on IBM system 360 and was on its descendant up to z/os before moving to the DBA role in a client server enviornment. With that I worked with Windows, OS/2, OpenVMS, and several flavors of nix.  I always* recommend against Windows for anything besides end-user desktop ... and that only because of Windows's pervasiveness in that arena.
    >
    Is it really that easy to just install Oracle 11g R1 (64-bit) and take a 9.2.0.7 dmp (Windows) and import it in?
    I do not have anything else to do? What about data type differences etc......I have some Blobs and Clobs in this database.I've never had the opportunity to work with clobs and blobs, but I do understand there are some issues there with exp and imp. I understand there are methods for dealing with it, but it does add a bit more complexity. Aside from that, it really is that easy. When using exp/imp to move data between different versions of oracle, always exp with the utility from the lower version and imp with that of the version being imported into.

    Thank you for your time.

    2.Import data to My SQL from the exported oracle file.
    and vice versa from My SQL to Oracle.
    my questions are
    1) is it possible to import .dmp (oracle export data) into My SQL. No you cannot use .dmp which are exported from oracle using exp/expdp utility
    2) which tool is better for this migrationUse sql developer to migrate from oracle to my sql

    check your NLS_LANG
    a typical setting in Europe is
    NLS_LANG=american_america.WE8ISO8859p1
    check also your database character set
