Hi, You could use Pretoria for this. It will : - pretty print the indexfile, - manipulate the storage clauses - seperate table/index/constraint ddl in different files See http://pretoria.sourceforge.net http://sourceforge.net/projects/pretoria Make a no-rows export as explained before - and create the indexfile (imp indexfile=myddl.sql) Then you can create a storage parameter file for example : "DWH"."CUSTOMERS" INITIAL 100M NEXT 100M PCTFREE 5 TABLESPACE CUST DEFAULT_TABLE("DWH") INITIAL 1M NEXT 1M TABLESPACE DWH_DATA DEFAULT_TABLE ("DWHADMIN") INITIAL 512K NEXT 512K TABLESPACE DWH_ADMIN_DATA DEFAULT_TABLE INTIAL 128K NEXT 128K TABLESPACE DATA "DWH"."CUSTOMERS_IDX" INITIAL 20M NEXT 20M TABLESPACE CUST_IDX DEFAULT_INDEX("DWH") TABLESPACE INDEX DWH_INDX DEFAULT_INDEX TABLESPACE INDX Using the above as a storagefile for Pretoria, the following things will happen (Read - DDL will be created): · the table DWH.CUSTOMER will get equal initial & next extents of 100M, pct free of 5, and will be placed in tablespace CUST · all other tables of owner DWH will get equal initial & next extents of 1M, and will be placed in tablespace DWH_DATA · all tables of owner DWHADMIN will get equal initial & next extents of 512K, and will be placed in tablespace DWH_ADMIN_DATA · all tables not owned by DWH or DWHADMIN will get equal initial & next extents of 128K, and will be placed in tablespace DATA · the index DWH.CUSTOMER_IDX will get equal initial & next extents of 20M, and will be placed in tablespace CUST_IDX · all other indexes of owner DWH will be put in tablespace DWH_INDX · all other indexes not owned by DWH will be put in tablespace INDX Allthough DBMS_METADATA exists for some time - now and then, Pretoria is still handy. Oh - it can also strip the storage clauses from the ddl. Anyways - you could write it yourself with awk/sed or perl - this one is in java and runs pretty well on every platform ;-) Cheers, Kurt At 06:29 14/10/2006 -0700, Nigel Thomas wrote: >Prabhu >>Is there any way to import the object with the default storage clause or any >>other methed we can do for this.
