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. The first one has half the tables filled with data from one subject area and the other dmp files has data from another subject area. Is there a syntax in the import utility which if data exists in a table ignore or skip it?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Is there a syntax in the import utility which if data exists in a table ignore or skip it?You have the Parameter TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION = SKIP :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16536/dp_import.htm#SUTIL936
But it let the Table as is. If a Table is empty it will stay empty.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

Report on table created
says:
failed to parse SQL query:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

Hi
Firstly, are you trying to upload your data into a new table or an existing table? If it's a new table, what name are you using?
Secondly, it may help if we could see a sample of the csv

QM action not allowed for DTP requests in master data and Text tables

Hi,
I have a master data object load request which has failed, returned error in st22 and job finished.
BUT the request has not turned red in the monitor - it's still yellow. That means that I can not delete request nor start new load to infoprovider because it believes a request is still running. But it's not, I've checked both sm37, sm50 etc.
When trying to manually change QM status to 'red' it says 'QM action not allowed for DTP requests in master data and Text tables'
How can I force QM status to red so that I can move on?

I searched for this question but there is no answer
Thank you

Folks
I know how frustrating this problem is even in netweaver 7.0 environment. I found a solution for this problem atlast and it works but a not direct way of resolving this issue.
When this request is in yellow status and not able to change / delete the request, its actually in a pseudo status and it is a bug in the program. This request sits in table RSBKREQUEST with processing type as 5 in data elements USTATE, TSTATE and this 5 is actually "Active" status which is obviously wrong.
All we need is, ask your basis person to change the status to 3 in both these data elements and then it allows to reload the delta. Once the delta is successfully loaded, you can delete the previous bad request even though it is still in yellow. Once the request is deleted, the request status gets updated as "4" in table RSBKREQUEST.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

How much TEMP space needed for datapump import?

How does one accurately predict how much TEMP table-space is needed prior to starting a data-pump import (via impdp)? I need a way to predetermine this BEFORE starting the import. It is my understanding that in data-pump imports, temp table-spaces are primarily used for the building of indexes among other operations.

Yes, I could use autoextend but that just shifts the problem of checking the logical table-space size to checking the physical space to see that it has enough room to extend.
I was really hoping for a formula to calculate the amount of TEMP space it would take up. For example, RichardHarrison's post above about setting the TEMP table-space size to be twice as large as the largest index, but wasn't sure on the accuracy of that statement. I was hoping someone has encountered this kind of scenario before and found an accurate way to predict how much space is really needed, or a good estimate to go by.
I will try out the idea of setting the TEMP space size to be twice the size of the largest index and see how that goes, as it doesn't seem there is a practical way of accurately determining how much space it really needs.
Thanks everyone.

Same user for export import utility

oracle database 10g
OS windows 2000 server
for import Is it necessary to create user with same name as of export file?

No need to create a user. but while importing you have to import as system with from user and touser clause specifying from where we export and where we are going to import
eg:
imp system/manager file=xyz.dmp fromuser=scott touser=matt

Is there anyway to use imp and rename a tablespace during import? Sort of what remap_tablespace for datapump import does?

I have a dump file from a 9i Oracle database with tablespace USERDEL_DATA but my database in 11g has tablespace USER_DEL_DATA. I don't want to name the tablespace what it is called in the 9i database because the naming convention is not consistent with what I have been naming the tablespaces. There needs to be a '_' between USER and DEL.
The problem I have is that, each time I try importing to 11g database, some tables that probably have USERDEL_DATA as their default tablespace in the 9i database would not import into the 11g database. Is there any parameter (I haven't found one yet) using native import (i.e. imp) to remap_tablespace? I know with impdp, I would be able to remap tablespace easily but this dump file is from a 9i database and impdp would not work on it. Please help.
Thank you for your assistance.

The old exp/imp utilities have a tablespace transport mode, sort of like the end goal, but maybe not quite exactly.
>> tables that probably have USERDEL_DATA as their default tablespace
That's not quite accurate, users have a default tablespace, used for table creation when a tablespace isn't specified in the DDL.
What we've done when an export file has tablespaces that disagree with the tablespace names in the import target, go ahead and create the disagreeable tablepspace, and set the target schema(s) user(s) to have zero quota on the "bad" named tablespace. The IGNORE=Y imp setting will end up putting the tables into the user default tablespace, as long as the user(s) haven't picked up the unlimited tablespace system privilege somehow/somewhere.
So when import is done, just drop the bad tablespace [including contents and datafiles]; and Problem Solved.
>> the naming convention is not consistent
Not seeing a problem there. Its got a name, tablespace(s) have to have one. Don't care what its called, just do have to know about it for backup/recovery, that would be the critical bit..

No Clue where to start: Importing Excel file into existing oracle tables

I have an excel document that has data organized in formats according to the columns of tables we have. Our database is 10 G and developers only have clients such as toad to manipulate database.
There are two columns that are sequentially created using tbl.NEXTVAL in two different tables. They are called LEAD_ID and CUSTOMER_ID in LEADS and CUSTOMER table obviously these are not included in the file.
CREATE tbl CUSTOMER ( int CUSTOMER_ID, varchar(40) FirsName, varchar(40) LastName )
CREATE tbl LEADS ( int LEAD_ID, int CUSTOMER_ID, varchar(40) notes, varchar(40) status )
The excel file is organized in cells that is consistent..
Where do I start, how would I do it? and I am being asked to do it by tomorrow and I have no clue..Can I do this with oracle itself or I have to read the file through Java?
Please give me some idea
Thank you,

Thanks for your suggestion with checking the log and bad file..It helped and was able to insert..
Actually this is a real project.. and the actual data is in the hundreds or more.. The problem was I had put sysdate in double quotes and should have been without them. It is now inserting into the table.. however If I can ask one more question.. I have actually multiple tables that I need to insert into from an excel file which is organized in columns..
For example.. let's say I have a row in the excel file as
Claim_Number FirstName LastName
A single insert would be inserting into four tables (CLAIMS, CUSTOMERS, LEADS, etc..)
first on CLAIMS table that only takes the Claim_Number
Second CUSTOMER table, that takes the Claim Number and Customer names ( FIRST and LAST)
Third could be inserting the LEADS table with a sequenced lead number along with the customer name and claim number..
So I would need to reuse the values three or four times for a single record to be inserted..
Can you give me some idea?
And also I have columns like ACCOUNT_TYPE that would be have same value always more like a constant or other columns like UPPER_FIRSTNAMEwith result that comes from a sql function with Uppse case of the other column.. which is just the upper case letter version of FIRST_NAME column.. and it won't be read from the input file.. How would I take care of such issues like the sysdate .. I tried the following shown in bold but didn't work..
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'c:\trex2.csv'
BADFILE 'c:\trexbad.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE CC_CUSTOMERS
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
TRAILING NULLCOLS
     LAST_UPDATE_DATE sysdate,
     CUSTOMER_NUMBER "CC_CUSTOMERS_S.NEXTVAL",
     CUSTOMER_ID "CC_CUSTOMERS_S.NEXTVAL",
UPPER_FIRSTNAME UPPER(:FIRST_NAME) ,
ACCOUNT_TYPE CONSTANT 'Residential'
     FIRST_NAME,
     LAST_NAME
Thank you in advance..

Alter data on datapump import 10G?

Hi,
I see this is possible with a call to data_remap() in 11g. Is there an alternative or simple workaround for datapump import in 10G? I have 1 field that needs to be toggled occassionally when doing the import. Right now, the person who wrote the refresh job exports the active partitions from prod, imports into dev. If it needs to go into partition2, she updates the field, exports again and then reimports putting it, at that time, into the correct partition. I thought I might be able to change the value on the import (or the export if possible). Does anyone have any suggestion on this?
Thanks, Pete

REMAP_DATA sounds like it would work if you were on 11, but since you are on 10, the only think i can think of is to do a 2 step process. The first would be to create the table then create a trigger on the table to do the necessary data remap. Then load the data using a content=data_only parameter. Not sure how this will perform since the trigger will fire on all of the inserts, but I think it could be made to work.

Help with Importing Excel Data into Formatted Tables

This is my first post, here, so please be gentle!
I am a relatively new user of InDesign CS4, and I am creating a 70-pg manufacturer's price book. A very large portion of each page is going to be size and price information imported from a large Excel spreadsheet.
I have created the table format that I'd like to use for each page, but the trouble comes when I import the Excel data into that table. For some reason, when I import, it all dumps into one cell. Would it be best to import as an unformatted table, and then format the table each time, or is there a way to simply import the data into my pre-formatted table? I've seen how the former is done, but the latter seems much easier (...although that could be my inexperience talking).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much,
Laura (V1500)

Thank you both so much for your time! This is exactly what I needed.
Cheers

How to delete some data from GLPCA table

Dear Friends,
We have extracted some data in GLPCA table via the ECPA component. We
want to delete these records ( Doc type and Posting date is known).
However we do not want other data already existing the GLPCA to be
deleted. Is there some Std SAP Trx for deletion of partial/select data
from EIS tables.
Please explain us clearaly how we can delete these records.
Your quick reply for this issue is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Naveen Kumar.

Hello,
Please check the use of the report ZDELETE_PCA_DATA_BUKRS (mentioned in the SAP note 1174360), to delete totals from GLPCT.
I am not sure of any deletion reports for GLPCA table.
If you open the Source code of this program, you can see the following information :
"This report provides a possibility to delete actual and plan
*& postings on company code level as an alternative for transaction
*& 0KE1."
I do not have much information on this report as, personally I haven't used this anytime. Please run in 'Test Run' mode first and look for the results.
I hope this helps.
Thanks and regards,
Suresh Jayanthi.

which does not exist in table

You need to explain your requirement a bit more. Why you want to add type or rejection reason in fact table.
In general you should avoid adding textual data in fact.
Fact tables are only supposed to store keys and measures. It can hold textual data in case of degenerate dimension ( i.e if the number of records are same in dimension as well as fact ).
Type or Rejection reason are going to have much less records. You can create a new dimension for them having probably 20 or 30 records.
Disadvantages of adding textual data in fact is, once the fact has millions of records the fact table updates are going to take huge time and also your reports will take long time.
If you have a rejection reason dimension with some 20 records, you can use rejection reason in prompts.
But if the same rejection reason is coming from fact table your prompts performance is going to be very slow since it has to fetch 20 distinct records from millions of records.
Consider these before adding textual data in facts.
Thanks

SudhirOne method is to use SQL Loader (sqlldr)
Another method is to define an external table in Oracle which is allowing you to view your big file as a table in database.
You may want to have a look at this guide: Choosing the Right Export/Import Utility and this Managing External Tables.

Datapump : How to append data in an existing table

Hello Everyone,
We are new to Datapump.
We try to extract data from one user/schema and to append it into another user/schema.
First we tried Tt use the parameter table_exists_action=append during the importation but we receive this error (but the rows are appended):
ORA-39152: Table "XXXXX"."YYYYY_ZZZ" exists. Data will be appended to existing table but all dependent metadata will be skipped due to table_exists_action of append
Which I don't expect since the utility have been told to, indeed, append data.
Next we tried to use CONTENT=DATA_ONLY on exportation and importation but the importation never end.
How can we append data into a table's user/schema without having an error?
Best regards.
Carl

IGNORE=Y during the import.it does the same operation. if the table already exists,it ignores and proceed with importing/appending data to the tables. same way, they do have indexes=n and constraints=n option.
both export/import have equivalent options for fitering to our requirement and datapump has one step above classic import in which you can filter upto metadata object as well.

Import, package util does not exist

Hi all,
I installed Tomcat 5.0 for Java WSDP and after Java Web Services Developer Pack 2.0. Hence I created a directory "SAMLTestTool" into the folder
"tomcat50-jwsdp/webapps/ROOT/"
and I put inside some JSP files and some other directory (WEB-INF, META-INF...).
In some jsp file there is this line:
<%@page import="util.RequestUtil"%>and in the subdirectory "SAMLTestTool/WEB-INF/classes/util" there is the file "RequestUtil.class".
But when I try to open these file through the browser (for example "http://localhost:8080/SAMLTestTool/service_provider.jsp"), this is the error:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: 59 in the jsp file: /SAMLTestTool/service_provider.jsp
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
tomcat50-jwsdp/work/Catalina/localhost/_/org/apache/jsp/SAMLTestTool/service_005fprovider_jsp.java:6: package util does not exist
import util.RequestUtil;What does it mean? Where should I put the folder "util" in a such way that this package will be found?

ROOT is a special folder configured to pertain to an empty context root.
If you put a folder there it is simply a folder but you are trying to use it as a context root.
So either keep what you have and put your util folder in:
tomcat50-jwsdp/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes
or
Move your SAMLTestTool to:
tomcat50-jwsdp/webapps/
Hope that helps.
