Schema export via Oracle data pump with Database Vault enabled question

Hi,
I have installed and configured Database Vault on an Oracle 11g-r2-11.2.0.3 to protect a specific schema (SCHEMA_NAME) via a realm. I have followed the following doc:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/security/twp-databasevault-dba-bestpractices-199882.pdf
to ensure that the sys and the system user has sufficient rights to complete a schedule Oracle data pump export operation.
I.e. I have granted to sys and system the following:
execute dvsys.dbms_macadm.authorize_scheduler_user('sys','SCHEMA_NAME');
execute dvsys.dbms_macadm.authorize_scheduler_user('system','SCHEMA_NAME');
execute dvsys.dbms_macadm.authorize_datapump_user('sys','SCHEMA_NAME');
execute dvsys.dbms_macadm.authorize_datapump_user('system','SCHEMA_NAME');
I have also create a second realm on the same schema (SCHEMA_NAME) to allow sys and system to maintain indexes for real-protected tables, To allow a sys and system to maintain indexes for realm-protected tables. This separate realm was created for all their index types: Index, Index Partition, and Indextype, sys and system have been authorized as OWNER to this realm.
However, when I try and complete an Oracle Data Pump export operation on the schema, I get two errors directly after the following line displayed in the export log:
Processing object type SCHEMA_EXPORT/TABLE/INDEX/DOMAIN_INDEX/INDEX:
ORA-39127: unexpected error from call to export_string :=SYS.DBMS_TRANSFORM_EXIMP.INSTANCE_INFO_EXP('AQ$_MGMT_NOTIFY_QTABLE_S','SYSMAN',1,1,'11.02.00.00.00',newblock)

ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_TRANSFORM_EXIMP", line 197
ORA-06512: at line 1
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_METADATA", line 9081
ORA-39127: unexpected error from call to export_string :=SYS.DBMS_TRANSFORM_EXIMP.INSTANCE_INFO_EXP('AQ$_MGMT_LOADER_QTABLE_S','SYSMAN',1,1,'11.02.00.00.00',newblock)

ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_TRANSFORM_EXIMP", line 197
ORA-06512: at line 1
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_METADATA", line 9081
The export is completed but with this errors.
Any help, suggestions, pointers, etc actually anything will be very welcome at this stage.
Thank you

Hi Srini,
Thank you very much for your help. Unfortunately after having followed the instructions of the DOC I am still getting the same errors ?
none the less thank you for your input.
I was also wondering if someone could tell me how to move this thread to the Database Security area of the forum, as I feel I may have posted the thread in the wrong place as it appears to be a Database Vault issue and not an imp/exp problem. ?

Suggestion regarding Oracle import & export utility

hi
I am navneet,I want to give some suggestion on Oracle import & export utility to Oracle Corporation. can u tell me where to send these suggestions
regards
navneet

It would seem to me that if they are enhancement requests, then the right way would be to file an enhancement request. If they are bugs, then file SRs so bugs can be entered.

Oracle Data Pump

What are the pre-requisites for using the Oracle Data Pump Export and Import ? Like, the config parameters in the initialization files, permissions, etc and the to-do's
Thanks

No, nothing like that.
You need to have Oracle 10g and have a directory object created to hold dump files.

CMSDK import/export utility

Can the 9i CMSDK import/export utility be used to export the content of the an iFS 1.1.6 schema to subsequently import into a 9i database? Once imported into the 9i database, then migrate/upgrade the 9i iFS schema to CMSDK 9 for testing purposes?

Thank you for your advice Luis.
What I really need to be able to do is keep my iFS 1.1.6/RDBMS8.1.7.4 development environment intact, while creating a CMSDK/Oracle9i environment for regression testing. I have multiple iFS schemas (6) in our 8.1.7.4 dev database (source). And, what I would like to do is copy one of the iFS environments (including Metadata) out of source and move it into the CMSKD/Oracle9i environment(target). Both environments need to remain accessible, and the source environment needs to remain at version iFS1.1.6 / 8.1.7.4 for regression testing.
Here's a list of actions that I have taken:
1. install oracle9i rdbms software.
2. create 9i database from scratch.
3. install 9iAS software
4. install CMSDK software in 9iAS root.
5. export one iFS schema out of the dev source database. (Using the plain RDBMS export utility)
6. import this schema into the newly created Oracle9i database.
7. Run CMSDK configuration tool to upgrade the imported iFS 1.1.6 schema. <== FAILED HERE!!!!
I run into a problem at the start of the upgrade, when using the configuration tool. It complains that the credential manager username IFSSYS$CM does not exist and fails. So, I simply created a user called IFSSYS$CM in the 9i target database to see if this would allow the configuration tool upgrade process to progress and the result was another error of "Insufficient Privileges". How can manually set a the crediential manager so that the imported iFS schema can be upgraded successfully?
I realize that be doing an in-place upgrade of my entire Oracle 8i source database. I will be able to migrate both the RDBMS and iFS using the installation/configuration tools.
If there is a limitation of not being able to copy (credential manager metadata) an iFS 1.1.6 schema out of the source and into a target database, and then upgrading/migrating the schema to CMSDK/Oracle9i. Then I may be forced into cloning my entire development instance (giving it a different name) and then doing in-place migration of the entire cloned database (all 6 iFS schemas). Our source dev database is 18G and includes much more (probably garbage data) than will be needed for our regression testing. My hope was to take only a subset of the 18G (1 of the 6 iFS schemas) and move it into CMSDK/Oracle9i to perform the testing. We are very low on available disk space and taking only a subset would be a more efficient use.
I have even attempted to use the CMSDK export utility to export the iFS1.1.6 schema. I was hoping this would export the iFS1.1.6 schema, metadata, contents, and credential manager. This was not successful due to missing Java packages not installed in the Oracle8i (8.1.7.4 database).
These are all the details of my dilemma. Can you help guide me in the right direction. I've spent a lot time already fumbling through and have had a number of false starts with my proposed approach. I need someone to tell me the recommended way of approaching my issue. Thanks again.

Best Practice for data pump or import process?

We are trying to copy existing schema to another newly created schema. Used export data pump to successfully export schema.
However, we encountered some errors when importing dump file to new schema. Remapped schema and tablespaces, etc.
Most errors occur in PL/SQL... For example, we have views like below in original schema:
CREATE VIEW *oldschema.myview* AS
SELECT col1, col2, col3
FROM *oldschema.mytable*
WHERE coll1 = 10
Quite a few Functions, Procedures, Packages and Triggers contain "*oldschema.mytable*" in DML (insert, select, update) statement, for exmaple.
Getting the following errors in import log:
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_FUNCTION:"TEST"."MYFUNCTION" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TEST"."MYPROCEDURE" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type VIEW:"TEST"."MYVIEW" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type PACKAGE_BODY:"TEST"."MYPACKAGE" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type TRIGGER:"TEST"."MYTRIGGER" created with compilation warnings
A lot of actual errors/invalid objects in new schema are due to:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
My question is:
1. What can we do to fix those errors?
2. Is there a better way to do the import with such condition?
3. Update PL/SQL and recompile in new schema? Or update in original schema first and export?
Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

I routinely get many (MANY) errors as follows and they always compile when I recompile using utlrp.
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_FUNCTION:"TKCSOWNER"."RPTSF_WR_LASTOUTPUNCH" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_FUNCTION:"TKCSOWNER"."RPTSF_WR_REFPERIODENDFOREMP" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_FUNCTION:"TKCSOWNER"."RPTSF_WR_TAILOFFSECS" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_FUNCTION:"TKCSOWNER"."FN_GDAPREPORTGATHERER" created with compilation warnings
Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/SCHEMA/PROCEDURE/ALTER_PROCEDURE
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TKCSOWNER"."ABSENT_EXCEPTION" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TKCSOWNER"."ACCRUAL_BAL_PROJ" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TKCSOWNER"."ACCRUAL_DETAILS" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TKCSOWNER"."ACCRUAL_SUMMARY" created with compilation warnings
ORA-39082: Object type ALTER_PROCEDURE:"TKCSOWNER"."ACTUAL_SCHEDULE" created with compilation warnings
It works. In all my databases: peoplesoft, kronos, and others...
I should qualify that it may still be necessary to 'debug' specific problems, but most common typical problems are easily resolved using the utlrp.sql. The usual problems I run into are typically because of a database link that points to another database such as in a production environment that we firewall our test and development databases from linking to (for obvious reasons).

Import Export Utility

Hi,
I have used import/export utility to migrate users from dev to test. While importing only "Admin" user is imported successfully but no others. Here are the importexport properties file, trace and error log for your reference. This import utility is only processing the users who has been part of in both the dev and test servers.

LCM vs IMPORT/EXPORT utility

Hi,
what is the better option for importing a planning application? LCM or import/export utility? Which one should i folloow? Which is more error-prone??
Thanks.

Thanks John... you perhaps remember i faced some problem in importing the access rights for certain data forms and task lists of my application using LCM. It could not find the appropriate data form or task list... Then i tried the utility and the import operation was 100%. And John... i was able to import the application into a whole different application( different name), even whose owner is different as well. I am using v11. But the LCM is very disturbing. It might show Completed, but one has to search through the application dimensions, forms everything if all the components and security have been imported properly.
John you said that obviously there are going to be some problems with LCM, then also what makes you recommend LCM over utility? I mean is there anything that LCM provides and utility does not?? Or it is just the GUI and easy to execute??
Thanks.

Import -Export Utility in Shared Services

Hi,
Can anyone help me to get through the import-export utility of Shared Services?
I need to know
1)How to export security file information stored in shared services using xml file( I need to run it in weekly basis)
2)How to import it back if ever the security file gets corrupted?
Please help me with th same.

If you go with the csv format (yes, I know, you wrote xml) you don't need an internal id field.
Here's a snippet of a file I used to build a group in Shared Services 11.1.1.3:
#group_children,,,,
id,group_id,group_provider,user_id,user_provider
XXXXPlan_All_Users,,,HoldenW,XXXXDC
XXXXPlan_All_Users,,,CooperG,XXXXDC
XXXXPlan_All_Users,,,WayneJ,XXXXDCI'm sure I got the format by first manually creating the group in SS, then exporting it, then modifying it. Yes, I did actually delete that native group in SS before I reimported from this file.
Regards,
Cameron Lackpour

CSS Import/Export Utility

I'm trying to export users and groups along with their provisions using the CSS Import/Export utility, and I've configured my importexport.properties file to include export.provisioning.all=true, but the exported file does not include any provisioning. Is there a way to fix this?

I agree with Seb. I could not get the 9.2.0.1 utility to work. It was exporting only native groups and the members in each group and not any provisioning info.
Once I installed the 9.3.1 version of the utility, it all worked fine. Make sure you install JAVA JDK 1.5 as the utility needs that version. Just install in same path as the cssimportexport utility so that it doesn't conflict with any earlier versions of java (we had 1.4.2) on that server.

An Oracle data pump situation that I need help with

Oracle 10g running on Sun Solaris:
I have written a unix shell script that exports data into a dump file(data pump export using expdp). Similarly I have import script that imports the data from the dump file(import using impdp). These are not schema exports. In other words, we have logically divided our schema into 4 different groups based on their functionality (group1, group2,group3 and group4). Each of these groups consists of about 30-40 tables. For expdp, there are 4 parfiles. group1.par, group2.par, group3.par and group4.par. Depending on what parameter you pass while running the script, the respective par file will be picked and an export will be done.
For example,
While running,
exp_script.ksh group1
will pick up group1.par and will export into group1.dmp.
Similarly,
exp_script.ksh group3
will pick up group3.par and will export into group3.dmp.
My import script also needs the parameter to be passed to pick the right dmp file.
For example,
imp_script.ksh group3
will pick up group3.dmp and import every table that group3.dmp has(Here, import process does not need par files - all it needs is the right dmp file. )
I am now faced with a difficulty, where, I must use Oracle's dbms_datapump API, to achieve the above same(and not expdp and impdp). I haven't used this API before. How best can I use this API to stick with my above stategy -- which is, I eventually need group1.dmp, group2.dmp, group3.dmp and group4.dmp. I will need to pass table names that each group contains. How do I do this using this API ? Can someone point me to an example, or perhaps suggest ?
Thanks

Or atleast, how do you do a table export using dbms_datapump ?

10g data pump full import

Hi.. I have full exported imported a 10g (10.2.0.3) database from Solaris to Windows 2003 using data pump. I have made object counts of both source and destination databases and found a huge difference in their total object counts (dba_objects). What is the reason behind this difference? The database seems to be ok and the important application schemas have all row counts similar. It is due for testing anyway tomorrow. Another question I need to ask you is the dumpfile. What is the max size of dump file which can be opened in an editor? I can't seem to open the data pump dmp file. Thanks in advance for your responses.

I have made object counts of both source and destination databases and found a huge difference in their total object counts (dba_objects).
What is the reason behind this difference? Perhaps you should do object COUNT(*) on per schema basis.
What is the max size of dump file which can be opened in an editor?You'll corrupt the file is you ever open in an editor.
I can't seem to open the data pump dmp file. You were saved from shooting yourself in the foot.

Importing Masters through SAP B1 Import Export Utility

Hi guys,
I am using Import and export utility to import BPs and Items. If anyone has used it please tell me if there any issues / future implications regarding it or it is just ok.
Thanks and regards
Pardeep

hi pradeep,
Only limited amount of columns(limited no. of data) can be
imported through the import from excel.
Date from excel should be mapped exactly with
as with columns and fields in Import from excel for both BP/Items.
Excise and other tax information in BP can't be uploaded
through import from excel,this can be possible in DTW.
Excisable,Material Type,Chapter ID and assesable value
can't be uploaded through import from excel,this is also not
possible in SAP B1.
You need to set warehouses manually if
"Auto add all warehouse to New Warehouses" is not ticked,this
is possible in DTW using template oWarehouses.
Considering above limitations you can better opt for DTW
to import datas to SAP B1.

Import Export Utility not working on Windows Vista

Hi
I installed Oracle 10g XE on my brand new Windows Vista Business (SP1) machine 2 weeks ago. I then sucessfully imported an oracle export file which I had. I later installed Oracle Forms & Reports. However, today trying to use import or export gives me the following error:
On importing...
IMP-00058:
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
On exporting
EXP-00056:
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully
I have tried everything... makinging sure my oracle home is set correctly in the PATH parameter, tried interactive import/export.
So when all else failed I installed 10g XE on a brand new Windows Vista PC that we have got just yesterday. Guess what.... straight after the install I get the exact same problem trying to use import/export! I then thought it must be a permission thing, there is only one user account on both PC's. This user is the Administrator, I have disabled all firewall, antivirus software but still no luck!
Please help..
Cheers
Billy

Wrong!
See my last post in this thread:
Re: Not able to start Oracle 10g Listener on Windows 2008 Server
there I explained a little bit UAC and how to deal with it.
Cheers!
