Hi

We are DB users (not DBAs) and used always exp/imp bevore application upgrade.
Was googling arround and read something like "Oracle Data Pump - Time to let go of Exp / Imp". It seems exp/imp is obsolete.

Our system doesn't have "expdp" command

> find . -name expdp
>


is this because of too old SQL*Plus?

additional questions:

- does our DBA need to give us privileges to run expdp/impdp?
- is that true that a expdp/impdp dump will be on the Oracle server (not the client machine)?

expdp did not exist before V10 Oracle
you must use older, plain "exp" export utility

>>is this because of too old SQL*Plus?
To be precise,
it is because expdp is not available in this version of client/server you are using.
>>- is that true that a expdp/impdp dump will be on the Oracle server (not the client machine)?
The file will always be created in server.

expdp is available on the server, but not client?

does the DBA need to give us privileges to run expdp? is expdp included in Oracle client? It means we need to upgrade Oracle Client?

It is the version of client you are using.
