Here are the scripts for export and import:

For export:
mknod t1.dmp p
compress < t1.dmp> t10.dmp.Z &
exp us/pw parfile=3Dexp.dat

For Import:
/etc/mknod t1.dmp p
dd of=3Dt10.dmp if=3Dt1.dmp &
imp us/pw parfile=3Dimp.dat

I have a 45GB Oracle 8.0.5 database on HPUX. I want to be able to do nightly exports so that if any of the tables gets "accidentally" truncated or whatever, we can restore just the table and not have to restore the entire database.

Does anybody have a script that uses the split(?) utility and compress so that the export isn't bigger than 2GB? What about importing? Can just one table be picked out of that large of an export if the export is split up and compressed? Please let me know your experience/advice on doing this.
