Dear all!

I've exported completely one dump file which contained only the tables, constraints, but without any record from my DB_CAS on machine 1 . Its size is 2MB. Then, I've imported it on the second machine, but its tablespace USER increased, it's too large - 7GB.

The tablespace USER in my machine 1 was 7BG, truthly, but contained records.

I did not understand how the tablespace USER in the second machine was same to this one on machine 1?

How do I resolve it?

Thank you very much!

Did you use full=y parameter to import? If yes then its logical size of tablespace will be same as of database 1.

This is the expected results.
Tables and indexes get created with sizes based upon extents from their source.
If you want them smaller, pre-create the objects with the sizes you want.

Thank you for your reply!

But, I did not chose the option that help=y. I just only wanted to dump my Database with table, indexes, procedure, function and package, without anything else.

How do I invoke the Export Utility?

Thanks!

You can let Export prompt you for parameters by entering the EXP
command followed by your username/password:

     Example: EXP SCOTT/TIGER

Or, you can control how Export runs by entering the EXP command followed
by various arguments. To specify parameters, you use keywords:

     Format:  EXP KEYWORD=value or KEYWORD=(value1,value2,...,valueN)
     Example: EXP SCOTT/TIGER GRANTS=Y TABLES=(EMP,DEPT,MGR)
               or TABLES=(T1:P1,T1:P2), if T1 is partitioned table

USERID must be the first parameter on the command line.
