If the export is a full export it will try to create all tablespaces, users, etc... for you however if the source uses ASM and your site doesn't this will be a problem. I find it generally better to pre-create tablespaces and owning users with the necessary privileges. This eliminated file path issues.

If the export is a SCHEMA export I am pretty sure you must pre-create the target tablespaces. If the schema pre-exits impdp will give you a warning but will continue to import the target schema(s).

Hi all: I received a 500GB compressed dump file from a vendor which I am to restore. I created a blank database for this to go into. Will the impdp utility create all the tablespace/schemas etc or do I need to pre-create all these?

Thanks,

Manjula
