Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Re[2]: Compressing Export Dumps
Hi Sergey and all,
Tried to impliment the on-the-fly gzip but some breakages!!
I created 7 different pipes and 7 different export jobs.
The first job run manually completed successfuly but all the
croned jobs are stuck -the daemon fired them off but nothing is taking place!
The Log files are empty and the zipped dumps are no where to be seen!
A "ps -ef|grep exp" shows that the jobs are active. It's now coming to 10
Hrs.
Any known issues with multi-occurences of pipe-files/gzip etc ?
Thanks

Hello Simon,
The command mknod p does the same thing as mkfifo (it just calls mknod
p).
I did large exports many times using gzip. So, it's your decision
whether to use compress or gzip. I did not have any troubles
at all. You don't have to remove the pipe and can easily reuse it
whether you want.
