Craig,
I had to smile when you stated you had 400 tables and were reluctant to
list them in the export or import parfile. Our 3rd party Student
Information system has over 47,000 tables. I frequently do exports and/or
imports with parfiles listing several thousand tables. It's not a problem
at all.
Spool the following to a text file and incorporate it (with minor editing
to add the parens and remove the first comma) into your parfile...
Select ',' || Table_Name
>From User_Tables
Where Table_Name <> '<theTableYouDoNotWant>'

Please respond to
ORACLE-L
Hi,
I'm trying to import the live schema into a test schema, but 1 or 2
tables have a lot of data and it's taking hours. Is there a way to skip
certain tables during an import?
We're using 8.1.7
We have 400 tables, so I'd like to avoid having to list all the tables
in the export statement.
I have to pre-create the tables to put them in the correct tablespace,
so could I alter the table definitions to force import to skip
particular ones?
Any help is appreciated.
Craig Healey
