EXPDP/IMPDP Export/Import dumpfile to a Remote Server Using Network_Link.

EXPDP/IMPDP Export/Import dumpfile to a Remote Server Using Network_Link.


Step 1: First you have to create a TNS entry at destination database which will be used to connect to the remote target database.

pumplink =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 172.17.1.171)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = Ultimus)
    )
  )


Step 2: Connect to SQL plus:


--Issue the following command to create db link on destination database:


CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK pumplink
   connect to scott identified by tiger USING 'pumplink';

Step 3: Issue the expdp command on the destination server using Network_link parameter:

expdp scott/tiger directory= dumpdir logfile=impi_temp.log network_link= pumplink  schemas=scott dumpfile=testnetlink.dmp

impdp  scott /tiger directory=dumpdir logfile= impi_temp.log network_link=pumplink schemas= scott  dumpfile=testnetlink.dmp

**In this case the "SCOTT"."SYS_IMPORT_SCHEMA_01" meta table is created in the local DB's importing schema not on the remote schema.

Solution of problem: Resultset Exceeds the Maximum Size (100 MB)

Solution of problem: Resultset Exceeds the Maximum Size (100 MB) I was running a select statement in PL/SQL Developer. it was a short query but the data volume that the query was fetching was huge. But when ever i Click the button Fetch Last Page or press 'ALT+End' button a message box comes after a while saying: Then I started looking for the exact reason of this sort of problem in Google. When I realized there was no direct solution in the web, I started looking the PL/SQL Developer Software menu and found the ultimate solution. The reason of this problem is there is a parameter of maximum result set size in PL/SQL Developer Software which is by default set to 100 MB.
