Re: Full Import

Thank you very much for the answer. It has been very helpful for me to understand the full import process. I still have a question.

Now I understand that a database should be created before I do the full import. But what is the minimum database components I should create for doing a full import? should I create system tablespace, redo log, RBS tablespace and rollback segments before I can run a full import?

Thanks again,

Brian Yan
