Is it possible to take only the incremental portion of a database.Using export/import ,It takes the whole table if is incremented. In oracle 8i query option may be used for taking subset of a table.
My requirement is to take the whole database(Only the incremental portion)
Please help.........

Dear khalid!
Yes it is possible to take incremental (only new changes) backup.
Type this command on your command prompt:
For Incremental export:
exp username/password file=pathfilename.dmp inctype=incremental full=y grants=y compress=n log=pathfilename.log
Note:the username should be a user with export rights.
For Incremental import:
imp username/password file=pathfilename.dmp inctype=restore full=y ignore=y destroy=y grants=y log=pathfilename.log
NOTE:the username that you have mentioned in imp command must have import rights.
VIP TIP:you should import in ascending order otherwise you will be in a big trouble. i.e if you have taken two exports one on yesterday and one today THEN take the import of yesterday's export first and then of today's.
GoodLuck!
