Server Utilities :: How To Add Date / Time In Export Dump File In Linux
Jul 11, 2013
I want to know how to add date/time in export dump file in Linux using parfile script. I keep getting an error "contain an invalid substitution variables"
my parfile is:
Dumpfile = Daily_Full_%U_`date "+%Y%m%d%H%S"`.dmp or
Dumpfile = Daily_Full_%U_`%date%`.dmp
the control file code in this path (c:externalctrl.ctl)
load data infile 'C:externalmy_data.txt' into table emp2 fields terminated by ',' (empno, ename, hiredate, etime, ejob, deptno)
this is the error :
C:>sqlldr scott/tiger control=C:externalctrl.ctl

We have two databases running on 10.2.0.4 and 9.2.0.8. Both are having the same unpartitioned table of size 80G. I am exporting the table on 10g by using parallel=8 and dumpfile with %U option. That took around 4 hours to export the table.
And on 9.2.0.8, i am exporting using below parameters, taking around 5 hours.
buffer=2000000 recordlength=64000
options i can try to speed up the export in both versions.
I want to take a schema level export .The schema size is 115 GB size . Do we require same amount of space to be available in server side (where we are taking a dump) as the schema size or less or more space is required in server side ?
We are DB users (not DBAs) and used always exp/imp bevore application upgrade.
Was googling arround and read something like "Oracle Data Pump - Time to let go of Exp / Imp". It seems exp/imp is obsolete.
Our system doesn't have "expdp" command
> find . -name expdp >
is this because of too old SQL*Plus?

- does our DBA need to give us privileges to run expdp/impdp?
- is that true that a expdp/impdp dump will be on the Oracle server (not the client machine)?

When i connect from sqlplus, it doesn't give any erro. What could be the reason?
here one biggest schema size is 250GB and the total size of all the schema's is 300GB. The file where am taking the dump has 350GB space but even then the expdp failed saying
ORA-39095: Dump file space has been exhausted: Unable to allocate 8192 bytes
why it failed and how to restart it and make sure it runs successfully without error.
Is it possible to determine whether the dump file is created using data pump export or normal export method by just looking at dump file, If yes, how ?
Why i am asking such question is...normal export and data pump export would create a dump file with an same extension filename.dmp. So to avoid confusion during import, i would want to determine by what method the dump file was created.
Also this would be useful for me at the scenario when the customer sends me only the dumpfile and ask to import into target database. ( may be the customer don't know in what method the dump file was created ).
I have A Daily hot backup using Expdp Command On oracle 10g R2 installed on the Linux server. And I'm trying to move this Dump File to Another directory on Windows server 2003 over network using Ftp script which will be run after the export process finished Automatically.
select sum(bytes)/(1024*1024*1024) "GB" from dba_segments where owner='JACK';
The above select query give the output of Schema size with 15 GB. When i perform the same schema export, the dump file size generating is 2 GB. What is the difference between the two scenarios as how come there could be a variation in file size?
I am in the process of upgrading our 9i DB to 10g . As they are on different servers, I have installed 10g on the new server and applied the latest patchset 10.2.0.4.
I am creating the production database and importing th e9i dump file into this.Now I will be testing the whole application that uses this database.After a week, I need to take the latest 9i dump and export to the new 10g DB.
Do I need to just import the latest 9i dump into the 10g db or do I need to do anything else?
I am facing a problem importing DMP file in 11g. While importing it gives me error not responding. I have to attached the jpg file for that to clear you my point whats wrong is going during import. My Dump is on 9i i want to import that on 11G R2.
I want to import dump file (without 2 tables) .The dump file contains 100 tables,indexes and constraints. So out of 100 tables i want to import 98 tables from dump file (without 2 tables).
I got: ORA-39001: invalid argument value ORA-39000: bad dump file specification ORA-31619: invalid dump file "C:P7DBfpac052912_dp01.dmp"

While trying to import a schema using Data Dump, I am facing the following issue - UDI-00018 - Import utility version can not be more recent than the Data Dump server.Following is the version information of the source and target DB and the utilities :
Source DB server : 10.1.0.2.0 Export utility : 10.1.0.2.0 Import utility : 10.1.0.2.0
Target DB server : 10.1.0.2.0 Export utility : 10.2.0.1.0 Import utility : 10.2.0.1.0
I have a bit of an issue with Oracle datapump dump files.
Today, I manage the export and import of oracle dump files. As part of the batch export process I have a script which essentially says:
For each schema realated to my application in THIS instance, export schema via the system user (system user allows me privs to all schemas).
On the import UI side of things I am able to run a "head -20" command on the dmp file and determine the "export client version", "date the schema was dumped", and "what schema it was dumped from". All useful info presented in my UI.
in that I allow the importation of production schemas into test schemas, (contained in a different tablespace). Based on naming convention I can determine the schema type (production or test). Additionally and probably most importantly, I am assured where the data has come from.
In looking at "expdp" and the dump file. Using the same method as above, it appears the data pump dump DOES NOT carry similar headers. Because of this, I am unable to return very little useful info from the dump file.
I realize I could run the impdp with the "sqlfile=myfile.sql" and then interrogate the sql file for the info. But on large dump files this would be fairly time consuming compared to a "head -20" on a dump file.
I'm rying to import schema's from a dump file that came from a different environment.
What I have is:
1. dump file 2. log file of the export
I'm trying to import the file(containing three schemas) with remap_schemas, and it fails, gives a lot of ORA-00959: tablespace 'string' does not exist.
Now, I've read in OTN:
[URL]
that what you need to do in that case is to use the REMAP_TABLESPACE option,to redirect the objects to a different tablespace.
I don't see a name of the tablespace I'm getting the error for in the export log.I don't know if I have more tablespaces I have to redirect with REMAP_TABLESPACE.
I don't want to perform this 3 times, have an error, by that find out what's the next tablespace needing redirection and only then starting over...
How can I know from the dump file and the log file,what is the tablespace names i need for the redirection to my names? Or its just that the tablespace giving me the error is the only one in the dump file?
I have dump file of 17 GB,which i want to import in my database db1 in user amol ;so i created new user under db1 as below ,before this i have created tablespace so that i can import my data only to that tablespace only. My steps are as below.
create user amol identified by amol default tablespace ptaxold1 temporary tablespace tem; imp amol/amol then i mentioned my dump file but after importing it does not show any table under user amol.
Is it possible to import a dump file using impdp data pump utility on oracle 10g where the export dump was taken using traditional exp utility and vice versa.
