My OP wasn't intended to show syntax, just that I've set PARALLEL to something greater than 1. The actual syntax is below (taken from a shell script)

impdp / DIRECTORY=$DIRECTORY \
  LOGFILE=$LOG_FILE_NAME \
  NETWORK_LINK=IMPDP_${SOURCE_DB} \
  SCHEMAS=${SOURCE_SCHEMA} \
  REMAP_SCHEMA=${SOURCE_SCHEMA}:${TARGET_SCHEMA} \   PARALLEL=4 Just seems like 3 of the 4 workers are pretty lazy and I wonder if there's any real benefit to setting parallel gt 1. Received on Fri Nov 21 2008 - 11:16:28 CST
