How about backwards compatibility with 9i? I know we can still use imp and exp, but I'd think this would at least be compatible with the last rev. -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Christo Kutrovsky Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 11:47 AM To: oracle-l Subject: Lets make a list of problems with datapump I will start - no "nologging" - constraints validated on import, re-reading the data multiple times - paralell only in enterprise (instead of doing multiple no-parallel index builds in workers) - no async IO - cant remap tables to tablespaces (i.e. table_name is in X tablespace with a number of other tables, and you want it imported into tablespace Y, but the other tables from X to go to X) - schema-to-schema transfer only through loop-back dblink Can you add to that list ? I am thinking to not include crashesh, errors and etc. Only things that are just not there. -- Christo Kutrovsky Senior Database/System Administrator The Pythian Group - www.pythian.com I blog at http://www.pythian.com/blogs/ -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
