LSC is right .1. SYS is not to be used for Exports. Note#277237.1 explains why one should not connect as SYS when running an Export. Essentially, since SYS does not follow the transaction level read-consistency rules, an Export as SYS does not provide data
consistency (even if CONSISTENT=Y is used).[The only reasons to use SYS would be when specifically requested by Oracle Support
or for Transportable Tablespaces] 2. SYS is excluded when running a EXP with FULL=Y.I did a quick scan of catexp.sql and found the exclusions for ORDSYS, MDSYS, CTXSYS etc but couldn't find explicit code which shows how SYS is excluded. [Probably the exclusion
is not in catexp.sql but in the oracle (exp) binary ?] At 04:48 PM Friday, LS Cheng wrote:
export full does not export sys (and several), may be that sounds better ;-) Thanks -- LSCOn 6/29/07, Stefan Knecht <<mailto:knecht.stefan@xxxxxxxxx> knecht.stefan@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Of course you can export sys:
