Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: import oddity
You could also use indexfile=filename option during import. This will not import any data but will write DDL to the index file. Create table statments will be REM med in the index file. Just remove those REM from the index file, change the storage parameter for the tables and indexes and run the file.. I use this approach all the time..

you can create the table in the database before the import with the size parameters you want and then import with ignore=y to ignore errors. Note that this will ignore ALL errors
