Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Datafile Migration Tool
Ugh. I avoid FULL exports and imports whenever possible. Aside from the length of time they take, and the observation that imports are almost never completely successful on the first go round, and the fact that they are a real pain in the butt if you have private database links, the logging is woefully inadequate.

Hi, !
Have you ever tried migrating a terabyte (or 100s of GB)database using export/import. THen you will not probably ask this question.
I was told by one of the quest experts that they have a tooll which is far superior than exp/imp. I have not tested yet.
