Data Pump and MAX_STRING_SIZE

in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered ✓

I was testing the import of some tables, exported from a 12.2.0.1.0 Enterprise DB, to another one of the *same* Oracle release version.

This failed, at a preliminary stage; due to the dump file being of an incompatible version (5.1). I was wondering if this could be related to the fact that the exporting DB had been converted to MAX_STRING_SIZE=EXTENDED and the importing one remains at the default setting?

Howdy, Stranger!
