Full database export and Import using Data Pump -11g

edited Nov 7, 2015 10:02AM in Database Utilities (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

Hello everyone

We have 2 11g databases (11.2.0.4)

Source database is on Linux

Target database is on Windows

We need to copy over our Linux database onto Windows database using data pump

Questions:

1. If we are doing a FULL export (FULL=Y), then at the time of IMPORT, oracle will

   create all the users and required tablespaces and we will not have to pre-create anything

   on the target database. Is that correct?

2. How does oracle know where to create the data files for the tablespaces on the target server?

   The source database is linux so the files would be like '/u02/oracle/oradata/users.dbf' but

Howdy, Stranger!
