Hi,
I'm trying to import the live schema into a test schema, but 1 or 2 tables have a lot of data and it's taking hours. Is there a way to skip certain tables during an import?
We're using 8.1.7
We have 400 tables, so I'd like to avoid having to list all the tables in the export statement.
I have to pre-create the tables to put them in the correct tablespace, so could I alter the table definitions to force import to skip particular ones?
Any help is appreciated.
