impdp is very slow when importing indexes

in Database Utilities (MOSC) 9 commentsAnswered ✓

When doing import using impdp the process becomes very slow when it is importing indexes

Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/SCHEMA/TABLE/INDEX/INDEX


How we do the impdp:

cat > $PAR_FILE <<EOF

userid="sys/password as sysdba"

directory=dp_dir

dumpfile=dump.dp

logfile=dump.log

schemas=xxx,xxx

exclude=STATISTICS

trace=480300

EOF

 impdp parfile=$PAR_FILE


Background:

We have been performing the import from a source database (1) to destination database (1) for a long time. The dump.dp is around 100GB and it takes 5 hours for the import to finish. This is acceptable to us.

We have built another destination database (2) which is same as destination database (1) in terms of hardware and software requirements. However for the same dump.dp which is around 100GB it takes 15 hours for destination database (2) to finish the import.

Howdy, Stranger!
