Re: LOB ?

I am not quite sure that you can reference a LOB in a remote database through a database link. You are very likely to get the ORA-22992 error when you attempt to do so.

22992, 00000, "cannot use LOB locators selected from remote tables" // *Cause: A remote LOB column cannot be referenced. // *Action: Remove references to LOBs in remote tables.

LOB question?

Can you have db A have a view w/ db link reference to db B blob data type?

I think so, but not 100% sure. The reason I ask is I have a 3rd party app that wants to move 500gb worth of images to a remote db, but have the current db
reference it as if it was in the same db through a view. Thanks for any blob insight the list can offer.
