Hi,

When running expdp if the dumpfile already exists we get the following error:

ORA-39001: invalid argument value
ORA-39000: bad dump file specification
ORA-31641: unable to create dump file "/space/backup/hs.dmp"
ORA-27038: created file already exists

Additional information: 1

Is there any way to force overwrite the existing dump file?

Thanks
