Hi All, Greetings. My source database is 10.2.0.4 on Solaris 10. The destination database resides on a windows server and is 11.1.0.7. We will be testing our schema level export generated on the source database (Solaris) to windows. As a backup I want to have an export generated from my windows desktop with 10.2.0.1 client installed to match the destination windows environment. The database size is 15GB with system tablespace/temp and redo included. The schema export on my windows desktop with 10.2.0.1 client ran for more than 50 hours but did not complete. It hangs at exporting a blob table. The export process did not die but there is nothing in v$sql_area either. 1) What am I missing here? 2) Any caveats for Solaris to windows export/import? Many Thanks in advance. --Sundar
