Re: exporting tablespaces

Thanks, so for example below, just to verify, I have the following create tablespace entry in the dump file for database instance k51:

• snip ----

"CREATE TABLESPACE "CBR_INDEXES" DATAFILE '/home/oracle8i/u01/app/oracle/pr"
 "oduct/8.1.5/dbs/cbr_indexes.dbf' SIZE 52428800 DEFAULT STORAGE(INITI"
 "AL 10240 NEXT 10240 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 121 PCTINCREASE 50) ONLINE PERM"
 "ANENT "

• snip ----

You see the path
/home/oracle8i/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/dbs/cbr_indexes.dbf in the file. That is where cbr_indexes resides for k51. So by default it will write it to that location. If I want to exp this file to k52, do I create a tablespace under the second database instance(k52), and place it in /home/oracle8i/u01/app/oracle/oradata/k52/cbr_indexes.dbf, will it automatically populate that one? Thanks.

And one other, the large log I exported of the contents of the dump file, can that be run in SQLPlus?
