there is a note out on Metalink on how to do this. You can also break the
export into separate files in later versions of Oracle8i. or you can run the
following script (modified to suit your system, it was last tested on
Solaris/Oracle 7.3.4)
#!/bin/sh
#
cd $EXPORT_DIR
#
# set maximum file size for each chunk of the export file
#
MAXFILESIZE=2000m
export MAXFILESIZE
#
# create filenames for the parts of the backup... for now let's go to 3
#

FILENAME3=$EXPORT_DIR/backup3_$ORACLE_SID.dmp
LOGFILE=$EXPORT_DIR/backup_$ORACLE_SID.log
#
# save off the old ones
#
mv $FILENAME1 $FILENAME1.old
if [ -f $FILENAME2 ]
then
mv $FILENAME2 $FILENAME2.old
fi
if [ -f $FILENAME3 ]
then
mv $FILENAME3 $FILENAME3.old

mv $LOGFILE $LOGFILE.old
#
# create the pipes

#
# start the readers from the pipes to create the export files
#
dd if=exportpipeaa of=$FILENAME1
dd if=exportpipeab of=$FILENAME2
dd if=exportpipeac of=$FILENAME3
#
# start the reader from the wrkpipe to compress and split the export
#
dd if=wrkpipe|compress|split -b $MAXFILESIZE - exportpipe
#
# start the export for real
#
exp / file=wrkpipe full=y compress=n buffer=4096000 LOG=$LOGFILE
#
# clean up after ourselves
#

#
ps -ef|grep exportpipe|grep -vi grep|awk '{printf (kill -9 %d;

Rajaram,
Please give me details on how to use mknod to split export files larger
than
2 GB. We have broken our jobs into over 50 separate export jobs on the

RE: Export Split Script (FAO LISA)
you can also use the FILESIZE parameter available in export since 8i
(the only docs I have are for 8.1.7 so I'm not sure if it was available
before that release)

Rachel,
Your scripts are so slick. I have been using them for 2 years now. I
haven't tried any of the others but 'if it's not broke done fix it!'. I am
going to be on 8.0.6.3 forever because out vendors won't certify the
application for 8i, so yours scripts are a life saver.

RE: Export Split Script
there is a note out on Metalink on how to do this. You can also break the
export into separate files in later versions of Oracle8i. or you can run the
following script (modified to suit your system, it was last tested on
Solaris/Oracle 7.3.4)
#!/bin/sh
#
cd $EXPORT_DIR
#
# set maximum file size for each chunk of the export file
#
MAXFILESIZE=2000m
export MAXFILESIZE
#
# create filenames for the parts of the backup... for now let's go to 3
#
FILENAME1=$EXPORT_DIR/backup1_$ORACLE_SID.dmp
FILENAME2=$EXPORT_DIR/backup2_$ORACLE_SID.dmp
FILENAME3=$EXPORT_DIR/backup3_$ORACLE_SID.dmp
LOGFILE=$EXPORT_DIR/backup_$ORACLE_SID.log
#
# save off the old ones
#
mv $FILENAME1 $FILENAME1.old
if [ -f $FILENAME2 ]
then
mv $FILENAME2 $FILENAME2.old
fi
if [ -f $FILENAME3 ]
then
mv $FILENAME3 $FILENAME3.old
fi
mv $LOGFILE $LOGFILE.old
#
# create the pipes
#
mkfifo exportpipeaa
mkfifo exportpipeab
mkfifo exportpipeac
mkfifo wrkpipe
umask 000
#
# start the readers from the pipes to create the export files
#
dd if=exportpipeaa of=$FILENAME1
dd if=exportpipeab of=$FILENAME2
dd if=exportpipeac of=$FILENAME3
#
# start the reader from the wrkpipe to compress and split the export
#
dd if=wrkpipe|compress|split -b $MAXFILESIZE - exportpipe
#
# start the export for real
#
exp / file=wrkpipe full=y compress=n buffer=4096000 LOG=$LOGFILE
#
# clean up after ourselves
#
rm exportpipeaa exportpipeab exportpipeac wrkpipe
#
# if you haven't used all the pipes, the dd may still linger on
# make sure to REALLY clean up
#
ps -ef|grep exportpipe|grep -vi grep|awk '{printf (kill -9 %d;
\n,$2)}'kill.lst
chmod u+x kill.lst
sh kill.lst

now to import from those split files

RE: Export Split Script
1. Create a Pipe , say usr1.pipe. A pipe is a FIFO structure. /bin/rm /dsk1/usr1.pipe /bin/mknod /dsk1.usr1.pipe p ( See your version of UNIX - mknod differs in its usage - i mean the syntax - some strains require that u mention -p ) 2. Let compress listen at one end of the pipe. cat /dsk1/usr1.pipe |compress /dsk9/usr1.dmp.Z In the above step while making compress listen to one end of the pipe - you are also sending its output to a different file. So, compress captures data at one end of the pipe and as and when it encounters data it compresses it and sends it to an output file. Make sure to run it in background. 3. Now do an export - in place of the export dump file mention the pipe. By doing this exp will be putting data at one end of the pipe ( and compress will be taking data at the other end) exp / file=/dsk1/usr1.pipe buffer=64000 2 usr1.log While importing, In a similar fashion, let uncompress listen at one end while imp TAKES data at the other end. Rajaram The value of an idea lies in the using of it. - Thomas Edison -Original Message- From: Armstead, Michael A [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2001 4:04 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject:RE: Export Split Script Rajaram, Please give me details on how to use mknod to split export files larger than 2 GB.

break the files down
the export parameter FILESIZE maximum size of each dump file in bytes
in conjunction with a list of files in FILE=(file1,file2,...,filen)
works great.
for Compression - for NT/W2K:
PowerArchiver has command-line support for compressing files - provided
that they are less than 2 GB.
http://ipsoft.cjb.net/
check out the section on command-line support.
PACOMP.EXE
ARJ is great - but its not free.
Also, if you don't like reading man pages - this one is real short.
Usage:
--
PACOMP {-commands -commands ...} {d:}{\path\}filespec.ext {files ...}
Commands:
-
a : add files to archive (default)
u : update files to archive
m : move files to archive (files only)
p|P : store relative Pathnames|store full Pathnames
c0..2 : set compression level (0 - store; 1 - normal ; 2 -
maximal)
spassword : scramble with password (must be given)
o : store date using the current system's date
my example:
destination source
pacomp -a -c1 d:\ZipFiles\DEV\EXP\dev_dat.zip
D:\Oracle\Admin\DEV\exp\dev_dat.*
yum.
Now you have NO reason for not keeping a backup set on disk.
