METHOD 1^st

Impdp over network using Network_link (Without expdp)

Applies to:

Oracle Version: 10G and later

Advantages:

This is an alternate and fast approach for importing database from one database to another.

This process can skip following activities:

1. Creating database directory for backup on source database.

2. Create dump file on source database.

3. Copy dump file at destination server.

4. Creating database directory for backup restoration on Destination database.

5. Expdp command to take database backup.

Solution:

Broker and ACE

Suppose we have two databases (db1 is Broker) and (db2 is ACE). We need to restore MYNET backup form db1 to db2.

Prerequisites:

1. Source and Destination database must be connected through the network.

2. Both databases must be in open mode.

3. Source database (db1) tns detail must exist at destination (db2).

4. Database (db1) (db2) tnsping check.

Go to BROKER database

ro =

(DESCRIPTION =

(ADDRESS_LIST =

(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ACE)(PORT = 1521))

)

(CONNECT_DATA =

SQL> create user nettest identified by nettest;

User created.

SQL> grant connect,resource,dba to nettest;

Grant succeeded.

SQL> conn nettest/nettest;

SQL> create table mynet(empno number,empname varchar2(20));

Table created.

SQL> insert into mynet values(001,'Mohan');

1 row created.

SQL> insert into mynet values(002,'Sohan');

1 row created.

SQL> commit;

Commit complete.

SQL> create table ABC as select * from mynet;

Table created.

SQL> create table CDE select * from ABC;

Table created.

Following are the steps:

1. Crate a public database link at db2 connecting to db1 using system user.

Go to ACE database

Detail of Impdp parameters:

network_link: This parameter will have value of db link created.

Schemas: Name of the schema need to import from source. If user doesn’t exists it will create it, otherwise it import in to existing user with one error.

Here, directory and dumpfile parameters are not required. Other parameters are same as it used to be.

Step 3:Go to broker db server and execute your export command here, you can see your broker DB schema (nettest) dump file stored in ACE db server schema directory (mynet).

If you need to refer about network_link parameter, you can from here

EXPDP/ IMPDP with Network_Link in Version 10G and >, Localy Backup for the remote Database

Network link option could be used in export/import pump to get the data from a remote database server. In the case of impdp it could be used to directly import from DB to DB without an intermediary dump file.

1. Create a TNS entry on the local database tnsnames.ora file for the remote database and create a database link using the TNS entry.

REMOTELOC =

(DESCRIPTION =

(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = remote-loc)(PORT = 1521))

(CONNECT_DATA =

(SERVER = DEDICATED)

(SID = remote-db)

)

Create the database link under the user that will run the expdp or impdp. If the user cannot find the database link following error will be shown

ORA-39001: invalid argument value

ORA-39200: Link name "remoteloc" is invalid.

ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found

SQL> create database link remoteloc connect to scott identified by tiger using 'REMOTELOC'

expdp
This will export the remote database's scott schema into the local database server's dump file directory.

Expdp scott/tiger directory=dumpdir logfile=impi.log network_link=remoteloc schemas=scott dumpfile=newscot.dmp

2. Specify the database link on the impdp or expdp commands.
impdp
The import will be run on the local database server and it will import the remote database's scott schema directly into the local database. There won't be any dumpfile generated in this case.
