Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Export direct=Y|N
I was having some problems with character sets not five minutes ago while
using DIRECT=Y I was getting EXP-00041 so I used conventional. The Database
has a WE8ISO8859P1 and the export was wanting to be done in US7ASCII. Rather
than take the time to figure that out I just set it a conventional for now
and will tackle why these character sets are different later today....
DIRECT=Y precludes the use of interactive mode exp...sometimes I am lazy when I just want to quick dump a table before making some big table fixes or rebuilds I use interactive mode.
Metalink note:155477.1
Has a list of limitations with Direct. Good read actually...
Are you compress the export on the fly...by making a thread? That is cool. I have the command syntax around somewhere..it's not in my head right now...HA!here it is right where I used it last in the very directory I'm in...
(hp/ux) - variations depending on platform...
autozip.sh filename user password tablename
mknod /tmp/temp_pipe p
compress < /tmp/temp_pipe > "$1".Z &
exp "$2"/"$3" file=/tmp/temp_pipe <exp parameters> table="$4"
rm /tmp/temp_pipe

I ran across an export that was taking 9 1/2 to 10 hours to complete (the
resulting dmp
file was about 7GB compressed). I added DIRECT=Y and it now takes 3 1/2
hours. My
question is: What are the reasons that someone would choose not to use
DIRECT=Y?
This is an 8.1.5.0.0 database running on a Solaris box; I would hate to have
just removed a
work around for some 8.1.5.0.0 bug! I have found comments in some scripts
here, but
they all seem to be in my handwriting!!
