Hello Oracle People,
I'm trying to figure out how to import a transportable tablespace I found.
The tablespace contains the "sample schema"
The export file and corresponding database file look like this:
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 31 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 31 $ pwd
/h/oracle/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 32 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 32 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 32 $ ll example*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 980992 Jun 27 2006 example.dmp*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 13115392 Jun 27 2006 example01.dfb*
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 33 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 33 $ cp -p example01.dfb /h/oracle/oradata/orcl/
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 33 $
I tried a simple command line:
imp transport_tablespace=y file=example.dmp datafiles=/h/oracle/oradata/orcl/example01.dfb tablespaces=EXAMPLE tts_owners=HR,IX,OE,PM,SH
Here is the error I see:

bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 34 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 34 $
Is imp expecting me to pre-create an empty database file before I run the import?
I've looked a bit at the docs. I see no evidence I need to do this.
Also I tried impdp.
It tells me
ORA-39143: dump file "/h/oracle/product/10r2/rdbms/log/example.dmp" may be an original export dump file
So, I need to use imp.
Here is what my database files currently look like:
03:23:06 SQL> select file_id,file_name from dba_data_files;
FILE_ID
----------
FILE_NAME
------------------------------------------------
4
/h/oracle/oradata/orcl/users01.dbf
3
/h/oracle/oradata/orcl/sysaux01.dbf
2
/h/oracle/oradata/orcl/undotbs01.dbf
1
/h/oracle/oradata/orcl/system01.dbf
03:23:35 SQL>
Thoughts anyone?
Do I need to run some kind of data file creation statement before I run the import?

ok,
I think I understand what is going on.
I now doubt that
$ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates/example01.dfb
is a copy of a database file.
What is it?
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 67 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 67 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 67 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 67 $ ls -la $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates/example01.dfb
-rwxr-xr-x 1 oracle dba 13115392 Jun 27 2006 /h/oracle/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates/example01.dfb*
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 68 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 68 $
bash sol oracle ~/product/10r2/assistants/dbca/templates 68 $
It is probably a binary file which DBCA can convert into a database file
once DBCA knows which characterset lives inside the target database.
The transportable tablespace feature depends on a matching
of charactersets between the transported data file and the target DB.

Now I got it figured out.
$ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates/example01.dfb
Is a data file backup (.dfb).
It was created by RMAN I suspect.
I wrote the following shell script to get the file restored
and the tablespace transported:
#! /bin/sh
. /h/oracle/.orcl
cd $ORACLE_HOME/demo/schema/
sqlplus '/as sysdba' @mkplug.sql s s s s s s s \
$ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates/example.dmp \
$ORACLE_HOME/assistants/dbca/templates/example01.dfb \
$ORACLE_BASE/oradata/orcl/example01.dbf \
$ORACLE_HOME/demo/schema/log
# end
Notice that it calls
$ORACLE_HOME/demo/schema/mkplug.sql
It's a complex SQL script which does many things.
I like the script; it made me happy.
