Did you get the errors on some but not all tables?

Did the tables with errors all contain LOB columns?

If so, you've run into a problem that has me stumped too... LOB storage is somewhat of a beast unto itself...every time I try to deal with it, whether it's partitioning, rollback/undo, or imp/exp, it seems to involve problems that don't crop up with other data types.

In short, I don't think there is a way to import a table with LOB's into a different tablespace unless you pre-create the table with your desired storage parameters and then import with IGNORE=Y.

IMP has an INDEXFILE option to write DDL to a file which you can then edit by hand to help with this process. Received on Tue Apr 15 2003 - 19:08:25 CDT
