Hi,

1. I have a database of size of 250 GB. I need to export this databse. For a size of 250GB database how much would be the export dump size(approx size), the reason is I need to allocate that much space for export.

2. I need to export the entire database, will this command do..or any other parameters required??

exp userid/password full=Y direct=Y File='/export/export.dmp'

Regards,
Brayan

hi brayan



if you'r using 10g ( expdp) instead of ( exp) utility and use
"ESTIMATE_ONLY" = Y
_____
ESTIMATE_ONLY
Default: n

Purpose

Instructs Export to estimate the space that a job would consume, without actually performing the export operation.

Syntax and Description

ESTIMATE_ONLY={y | n}

If ESTIMATE_ONLY=y, then Export estimates the space that would be consumed, but quits without actually performing the export operation.

Example

The following shows an example of using the ESTIMATE_ONLY parameter to determine how much space an export of the HR schema will take.

> expdp hr/hr ESTIMATE_ONLY=y NOLOGFILE=y


HOPE THIS HELPS.
Mohammad Taj.
