Re: How to use Export Transportable Tablespaces

Exporting Tablespaces is not achieved using fromuser/touser. The entire tablespace is transported, no matter whose objects are in it. Actually, just the meta data is exported and imported. The other step is to physically copy the files supporting the tablespace to a new location and attaching them to the the target database. See attached file for an example.

There are straightforward examples in the 8.1.7 documentation. I don't know if that feature is available in 8.1.6. But regardless, you should investigate WHY the fromuser/touser didn't achieve the desired results or I fear you'll be disappointed again.

Does anyone have an example of how to use transportable tablespaces with export/import.

I want export a user (8.1.6 database) source and import fromuser touser(8.1.6 database) target.

I tried to import fromuser/ touser, but many contraints were not created and lost some data
so I was told to try transportable tables. Can't find any good examples on how to use this new
feature.

Can someone please help me.

Thanks
Larry
