Re: Export Problem : Compressed file bigger than 2GB !

What are your exp options? Are you grabbing the indexes and constraints? (Those can be turned off.)

I don't know of any way to grab segments of the table to export using exp. Maybe you could write something to do that yourself. I haven't tried this, but maybe there is a way that you can use the split command (assuming you are running this under unix) to split the file up into manageable chunks and then compress the chunks.

Maybe you could try looking this up under Oracle MetaLink.

Hope this helps.
