Re: Export, Create, Import Users

Exporting with OWNER= and FULL= are not allowed. The OWNER parameter tells the export utility which user's to export. The FULL parameter says to export the entire database. If I'm exporting the FULL database, why then specify just one user? In fact, specifying both OWNER and FULL as export parameters will raise an error and the export will not run. This can be seen below:

edcsns14 ora9i% exp userid=system file=temp.dmp owner=peasland full=y

The Oracle docs talk about the differences between export modes. In particular, the Oracle Utilities guide has information on export and import. Chapter 1 is devoted to export. You can find Chapter 1 at the following link:

http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch01.htm#1013411

There is a section called Export Modes
(http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch01.htm#1004891) which discusses each of these at length.
