Re: transporting 3 TBs of data to a new database

You might want to look at using DBMS_FILE_TRANSFER. I've used this to copy
files in and out of ASM using transportable tablespaces a number of times
and it works well.

Cheers,

Ian

I am on ASM, the group moving the data is not. I think transportable
tablespaces is the best way to do this. So I have to use RMAN to put the
data in ASM. Is this a copy to an an ASM tablespace? Any idea how
this works? I am trying to figure out how long this will take. We may be
able to do it in pieces.

I dont think data pump is good for this.

I also dont know a good wait to write comma delimitted files out of this
much data to sql load.
