You ruled out exp w/ compress. How about exp to a named pipe,=20 (optionally compress), ssh across network, (optionally decompress), dump data into another named pipe, imp from named pipe.

Second option, SQL*Plus 'copy' command.

PS With either of the above solutions, you may consider dedicated Gig-E = connections with dedicated listeners and distinct dedicated service = names, and multiple pipes concurrently to speed things up, if you've got = lots of tables.

Subject: &^@#%$@#%$ stinkin' oracle7 database

I've got a table in an Oracle7.3 database (that I'm finally getting to upgrade and I'm trying to figure out how to get the data from the old DB over to the new DB on the new server.

table is too big to export (even sending the export to a pipe and =3D thence to a compress)
table contains a long raw, so I cannot use the sqlplus COPY command
table contains a long raw, so I cannot do INSERT INTO <DBLINKED =3D TABLE> SELECT * FROM...
table contains a long raw, so dumping to a flat file and re-inserting = =3D using sqlplus will not work.

Other than writing a Pro*C program to do it myself, how can this data be = =3D
moved?
