Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain nahh i've hacked export files, there is nothing in there to denote the HWM, at least nothing i've found.   joe   >>> JayMiller@TDWaterhouse.com 08/08/01 01:33PM >>>Everyone's comments about not setting compress=N are on the mark.  Doesanyone know if the HWM is somehow noted in the export?  If not (which iswhat I'd guess without testing), she can just shrink the datafile down to amore reasonable size and change the initial/next storage parameters on thetable.-----Original Message-----Sent: Monday, August 06, 2001 12:07 PMTo: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-LHi all,I have an export file of 6M.  The import file only hasDDL.  I imported the file into a db of about 1G. After import, the db became 6G !!!  There is one tablewith 71 columns, but NO DATA, takes 1.8G !!!  How does this happen, and how to make the objectsclaim the space. I issued Alter Table ... DeallocateUnused, but doesn't help.  Also how to prevent thisfrom happening.Both the export and import database are 815 on Sun5.6.The export db has 8K block size, while import db has2K.
