How NOT to EXPort a specific table when FULL=Y?

We use a method for updating our test instance whilst excluding the =
biggest few tables.

It probably isn't supported by Oracle and make sure you test it and =
understand the gotchas - eg you don't get the table but you do get the =
views based on the table which will be invalid - so you need to recreate =
the table & indexes and then recompile everything (or pre-create the =
table).

Anyway, create a custom version of catexp.sql (ie =
?\rdbms\admin\catexp.sql).
--    Update views exu81obj + exu81tabs - add o$.name NOT IN ('x','y')
--      View exu8usr would need altering if wanted to exclude a particular =
user.

Note that I got the original idea from Nov 2002 Oracle-L postings by =
Arup Nanda + Kirti Deshpande - subject "export in full mode but exclude =
particular user".

Then have a script that does the export
run your custom catexp-nobig.sql
run export
run standard catexp.sql

Obviously don't do this at the same time someone else (scheduled job?) =
is trying to do a normal export (eg full) that involves those tables.

HTH,
