Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Help Huge Database Restore using exp/imp !!!! Help Please !!!
Well you've got me confused right from the start.
What exactly are you going to export from? Is it the current broken database?
Why do you suppose you would lose data by restoring in RMAN and rolling forward to just before the dictionary corruption?
If the data dictionary is broken, what makes you think that export will pick up all the tables, if you are going to try to export the current broken database?
Depending on the dictionary corruption, you might get lucky in that way. If
you are able to complete the export and get all the tables out, your
scenario seems okay, but I'm
still confused why a restore from RMAN will not fix your problem.
What exactly IS the dictionary corruption, and do you know what caused it? Do you expect it to happen again in an RMAN restore as opposed to the multi-user race conditions in which it originally happened?
Regardless, good luck.

Subject: Help Huge Database Restore using exp/imp !!!! Help Please !!!
Greetings,
Oracle 9.2.0.6 on HP-UX 11.11, 12 CPU
Database Size: 600 GB
Reason: Database Corruption
Action Plan: Oracle Recommended to go for exp/imp because of Data
dictionary Corruption
We worked with Oracle for 2 days, , the out come is nothing can be done, exp/imp is the only way
We dont want to goback to our RMAN backups and loose data, clients are not ready for that.
Planning to start the work on Friday evening and hoping to complete by Sunday evening.
Stpes in Brief:
We are getting 800 GB EMC Storage being mounted on to the Same HP server
Create new Filesystems that are required
Create new Database
Split the tables and schema into multiple PAR files for export
exp and imp over the pipes same time to save time
I will be using direct=y indexes=n constraints=n recoedlength=65535 Rebuild indexes in parallel after the Data is exported.
We have 12 schema, 4 to 5 schem are around 20gb in size one schema is 250 gb in size and it has a partitioned table Planning to split the partitions for the exp and imp
For constraints, packages and sps, view etc,
I am thinking of doing exp of the schema owner with rows=n indexes=n and
import it.
Does this sound goog
Every bodies eye are on us.
I appreciate your comments and suggestions.
