Where clause in Export / Import

Hi,
Oracle9.2
Windows Os
I want to extract certain conditional records from table using export.
Is there any option to use a "where" condition while using oracle's export utility ?
or
is there any other alternative to archive the conditional records on daily basis ?
Regards

exp query=
Please note this parameter will be appended to every implicit select required for export, and it doesn't work in direct=y mode.

Where clause in export

I have 3 tables with 3 different name for month field.
table month
A bill_mon
B bill_month
C month
now on the basis of month field in where clause I want to take Export of above tables.
How I can do it?

No you dont need a select.

Slow split table export (R3load and WHERE clause)

For our split table exports, we used custom coded WHERE clauses. (Basically adding additional columns to the R3ta default column to take advantage of existing indexes).
The results have been good so far. Full tablescans have been eliminated and export times have gone down, in some cases, tables export times have improved by 50%.
However, our biggest table, CE1OC01 (120 GB), continues to be a bottleneck. Initially, after using the new WHERE clause, it looked like performance gains were dramatic, with export times for the first 5 packages dropping from 25-30 hours down to 1 1/2 hours.
However, after 2 hours, the remaining CE1OC01 split packages have shown no improvement. This is very odd because we are trying to determine why part of the table exports very fast, but other parts are running very slow.
Before the custom WHERE clauses, the export server had run into issues with SORTHEAP being exhausted, so we thought that might be the culprit. But that does not seem to be an issue now, since the improved WHERE clauses have reduced or eliminated excessive sorting.
I checked the access path of all the CE1OC01 packages, through EXPLAIN, and they all access the same index to return results. The execution time in EXPLAIN returns similar times for each of the packages:
CE1OC01-11: select * from CE1OC01 WHERE MANDT='212'
AND ("BELNR" > '0124727994') AND ("BELNR" <= '0131810250')
CE1OC01-19: select * from CE1OC01 WHERE MANDT='212'
AND ("BELNR" > '0181387534') AND ("BELNR" <= '0188469413')
      0 SELECT STATEMENT ( Estimated Costs = 8.448E+06 [timerons] )
|
---      1 RETURN
      |
      ---      2 FETCH CE1OC01
          |
          ------   3 IXSCAN CE1OC01~4 #key columns: 2
query execution time [millisec]            |       333
uow elapsed time [microsec]                |   429,907
total user CPU time [microsec]             |         0
total system cpu time [microsec]           |         0
Both queries utilize an index that has fields MANDT and BELNR. However, during R3load, CE1OC01-19 finishes in an hour and a half, whereas CE1OC01-11 can take 25-30 hours.
I am wondering if there is anything else to check on the DB2 access path side of things or if I need to start digging deeper into other aggregate load/infrastructure issues. Other tables don't seem to exhibit this behavior. There is some discrepancy between other tables' run times (for example, 2-4 hours), but those are not as dramatic as this particular table.
Another idea to test is to try and export only 5 parts of the table at a time, perhaps there is a throughput or logical limitation when all 20 of the exports are running at the same time. Or create a single column index on BELNR (default R3ta column) and see if that shows any improvement.
Anyone have any ideas on why some of the table moves fast but the rest of it moves slow?
We also notice that the "fast" parts of the table are at the very end of the table. We are wondering if perhaps the index is less fragmented in that range, a REORG or recreation of the index may do this table some good. We were hoping to squeeze as many improvements out of our export process as possible before running a full REORG on the database. This particular index (there are 5 indexes on this table) has a Cluster Ratio of 54%, so, perhaps for purposes of the export, it may make sense to REORG the table and cluster it around this particular index. By contrast, the primary key index has a Cluster Ratio of 86%.
Here is the output from our current run. The "slow" parts of the table have not completed, but they average a throughput of 0.18 MB/min, versus the "fast" parts, which average 5 MB/min, a pretty dramatic difference.

Hi all, thanks for the quick and extremely helpful answers.
Beck,
Thanks for the health check. We are exporting the entire table in parallel, so all the exports begin at the same time. Regarding the SORTHEAP, we initially thought that might be our problem, because we were running out of SORTHEAP on the source database server. Looks like for this run, and the previous run, SORTHEAP has remained available and has not overrun. That's what was so confusing, because this looked like a buffer overrun.
Ralph,
The WHERE technique you provided worked perfectly. Our export times have improved dramatically by switching to the forced full tablescan. Being always trained to eliminate full tablescans, it seems counterintuitive at first, but, given the nature of the export query, combined with the unsorted export, it now makes total sense why the tablescan works so much better.
Looks like you were right, in this case, the index adds too much additional overhead, and especially since our Cluster Ratio was terrible (in the 50% range), so the index was definitely working against us, by bouncing all over the place to pull the data out.
We're going to look at some of our other long running tables and see if this technique improves runtimes on them as well.
Thanks so much, that helped us out tremendously. We will verify the data from source to target matches up 1 for 1 by running a consistency check.
Look at the throughput difference between the previous run and the current run:

Hello,
You should use parameter file.Another question i can see you are using 11g.Why don't you use data pump?.
Data Pump is faster and have more features and enhancement than regular imp and exp.
You can do the following:
sqlplus / as sysdba
Create directory DPUMP_DIR3 for 'Type here your os path that you want to export to';then touch a file:
touch par.txt
In this file type the following the following :
tables=schema.table_name
dumpfile=yourdump.dmp
DIRECTORY=DPUMP_DIR3
logfile=Your_logfile.log
QUERY =abs.texp:"where hiredate>'01-JAN-13' "then do the following
expdp username/password parfile='par.txt'
If you will import from Oracle 11g to version 10g then you have to addthe parameter "version=10" to the parameter file above

Export/import utility for portals: opeasst ; where to launch from?

hi all
does this script opeasst.csh have to be run from infra home or the midtier home? i think for exports of pages and portlets from 904, the CH 10 on export/import requires us to launch export from the mid-tier.
however, if i set up the midtier as my home, and intend to use the opeasst.csh, i do not see this script sitting in the directory where it's been suggested to reside:
ORACLE_HOME\portal\admin\plsql\wwu
instead it is in the ORACLE-infra home:
ORACLE_HOME\portal\admin\plsql\wwu
please help. it is URGENT.
I am using OracleAS 10g Portals 9.0.4 version.

I've been doing some runs and had typical DB export's at about 12 GB per hour (compressed to ~7GB file). Typical DB I/0 bottle neck loosened by using different file system/disk to point export at than where the DB data files reside (CPU ~80% of single CPU)
now the import is a bigger item.

Generate WHERE clause for VO using imported entities

Hi,
I am using JDev 9.0.3 Preview.
I attempt to create in one BC project a view based on a join of three entities.
One of the entities is from the same project, but the other two are imported. After importing the project(s) containing the two additional entities, I have to create the associations (based on database constraints) between the "inner" entity and the "imported" entities. This is OK (apart from known problems, with known workarounds...)
Now I want to modify the default view created by the wizard for the inner entity and add the two imported entities. When I add the first imported entity, all is OK, the WHERE clause is properly updated, according to the definition of the association. But, when the second imported entity is added, the WHERE clause remains unchanged.
Is this the expected behaviour?
Thanks,
Adrian

I tried to reproduce this in our production 9.0.3.1035 build which will be available here very shortly on OTN, and this issue is no longer a problem in 9.0.3 production. The WHERE clause is formulated correctly.

Can't Export data if WHERE clause contains AND/OR

I am able to export the results of a query if the WHERE clause only has one condition. But if there is and AND or an OR, you can right-click and choose Export Data, but nothing happens.
For example, the following will Export just fine:
SELECT * FROM DUAL
WHERE ROWNUM = 1;
But throw in an 'AND', and it won't Export:
SELECT * FROM DUAL
WHERE ROWNUM = 1 AND ROWNUM < 2;
I am running Ver 1.5.3 and haven't applied any patches.

Unfortunately, as part of trying to fix other issues with the export functionality, 1.5.3 introduced problems where certain types of SQL statements wouldn't export (either nothing happened as you are seeing or reporting error messages like ORA-936). While it is not yet perfect, 1.5.5 handles exporting results much better (it copes with your case that fails in 1.5.3), so I would suggest you upgrade to 1.5.5.

SQL: order of WHERE clauses important for performance?

I wonder if the order of the WHERE clauses does affect performance or if the database optimize each query so that the order is irrelevant? Example: is
SELECT *
FROM Table1
WHERE (fast condition check)
AND (slow condition check)
faster than
SELECT *
FROM Table1
WHERE (slow condition check)
AND (fast condition check)
because the first condition check might be false and therefore the second is not executed? (Some kind of Java if (fast && slow) is faster than if (slow && fast) ?)

It depends on how sophisticated the database optimizer is. IBM's DB2/UDB will completely rewrite the syntax of SQL as part of optimization and does not care what the order of the where clause is. Oracle actually has two optimizers RULE and COST. The RULE based optimizer is affected by the order of the where clause, COST is not (RULE is no longer available in the newest version of Oracle, Oracle 10g).

Where can I find Export/Import scripts?

Hello,
I have read in Oracle9iAS Portal Export/Import document about these scripts:
secexp.csh
contexp.csh
pageexp.csh,
but I can't find them.....can you help me?
In which directory are they?
Thanks in advance.

The upgrade scripts are available at:
http://technet.oracle.com/support/products/iportal/support_index.htm
They say they are for Solaris, but they include the code for NT also. We have used these scripts to upgrade EA to prod on NT with no problems.

I looking for example of FM for Virtual provider where I find code how assign to select statement "where" clause value from query variable.
In following code how build t_r_custtype range and how assign value to it.
CODE********************************
TYPE-POOLS: abap.
initialize
CLEAR: e_t_data, e_t_msg.
this is specific to infoprovider VIRTPROV
CHECK i_infoprov = 'VIRTPROV'.

                 <l_s_data> TYPE ANY.
DATA: l_t_component TYPE abap_compdescr_tab,
        l_t_sbook     TYPE TABLE OF sbook.
initialize
CLEAR e_t_data.
Data selection / only Business Customer
SELECT * FROM sbook
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE l_t_sbook
    WHERE custtype in t_r_custtype.
ENDCODE********************************
Thanks a lot

Summary column with where clause

Hi all,
I'm using Oracle Report Builder 10GR2. I have the following issue: In one of the query i have the following result :
Suppliers     0
Suppliers     1408
Total in BGN     1408
Customers      6024
Customers      11779.32
Customers
Total in BGN     11779.32
Taxes      0
Taxes      0
Total in BGN     0
Cash      1363.85
Cash      691
Cash      991.23
Cash      688
Total in BGN     2355.08I want to make a sum for these columns where corresponds to description " Total in BGN" . Maybe it is a simple task... Do i have a chance to select from a query in a Report Builder?
If yes, pls specify? Or maybe there is a chance to add a where clause for summary column. But keep in mind that this is one of the queries in the report builder and i have to add summary with this conditions. I cannot change the existing query but probably add a new one.
Any ideas?
DB Version: 11g
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
You should use parameter file.Another question i can see you are using 11g.Why don't you use data pump?.
Data Pump is faster and have more features and enhancement than regular imp and exp.
You can do the following:
sqlplus / as sysdba
Create directory DPUMP_DIR3 for 'Type here your os path that you want to export to';then touch a file:
touch par.txt
In this file type the following the following :
tables=schema.table_name
dumpfile=yourdump.dmp
DIRECTORY=DPUMP_DIR3
logfile=Your_logfile.log
QUERY =abs.texp:"where hiredate>'01-JAN-13' "then do the following
expdp username/password parfile='par.txt'
If you will import from Oracle 11g to version 10g then you have to addthe parameter "version=10" to the parameter file above

Dynamic where clause in "delete itab where..." variant

Hi, I need to be able to delete the contents of an internal table based on a dynamic where clause. I don't want to loop through the entire table to test each record. Since the delete statement doesn't seem to allow a dynamic "where" clause I am trying to use a macro. I can't get the macro to work either.
I get the following error in my syntax check:
Statement concluding with "...FINAL_STATEMENT" ended unexpectedly.
Is there any way to get this macro to pass the syntax text or accomplish the dynamic delete?
MACRO TO FILTER OUT UNWANTED RECORDS (RETAIL OUTLETS)
DEFINE DELOUT.
    DELETE MY_ITAB WHERE &1.
END-OF-DEFINITION.
Example FINAL_STATEMENT = ( ZRRDIVIS = '4' )
USING MACRO DOES NOT PASS SYNTAX CHECK
DELOUT FINAL_STATEMENT.

Well, if you really need this kind of functionality, here is a code sample that I just threw together that would work. A lot of code for one little delete statement though.
report zrich_0001 .

      fielda type c,
      fieldb type c,
      fieldc type c,

    class-data: isource type table of t_source,
                xsource type t_source.

endclass.

Dynamic itab with Dynamic Where clause

Hi, Dear All,
Can someone provide a code extract for Dynamic where clause, i had already done with dynamic itab for a given set of fields, and i need to add where clause dynamically for a given field for a given range of values.
select (i_fields) into table <dyn_table>
                  from (p_table)
                 where (v_where).
In the above except the where clause, everything is done. Please help me.

Mahesh
