RE: Export/Import Job

Nick,  

Export/Import on an Oracle Apps database is not very well supported. It is my understanding (from another list) that a bug (or is that a feature :) currently exists. This may not be applicable in your situation. A loss of Java objects has been reported. Keeping in mind that Quest may need to know about this for a testing scenario, this may be Ok, but not if you want the Apps database to work from a logical point of view.... Nick, if you would to like to follow this up, join the OAUGnet-DBA list at 'www.oaug.net' via the Web ans search for the thread 'RE: export/import of 11i database - fyi update'.

If anyone out there has a good time estimate for the following export/import job I would appreciate it. The goal is to change the DB_BLOCK_SIZE.  

Application: Oracle Apps 11i
Database Size: 100GB, actually only about 80GB is used space. 2 CPU HP L-Class machine.  

I just need a couple of good estimates of how many days/hours this will take. I'm guessing around 3 days... but I have never done anything this large before.  

Thanks!!  

Nick
