Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Export direct=Y|N
Kurt - Are you using export/import to move SYSTEM tables? Not a good idea.
As for the restrictions on direct path export, there aren't many. For direct
path import, there are many, as documented in the Oracle Utilities Manual.
Here is a posting that may be helpful.

I ran across an export that was taking 9 1/2 to 10 hours to complete (the
resulting dmp
file was about 7GB compressed). I added DIRECT=Y and it now takes 3 1/2
hours. My
question is: What are the reasons that someone would choose not to use
DIRECT=Y?
This is an 8.1.5.0.0 database running on a Solaris box; I would hate to have
just removed a
work around for some 8.1.5.0.0 bug! I have found comments in some scripts
here, but
they all seem to be in my handwriting!!
