Export Import Urgent

[aarroyob]

You have an export file from 8.1.6 and you want to import into 8.1.5 then:

1. Create a new entry in your 8.1.6 tnsnames server for the 8.1.5 database.
2. Try to connect to this 8.1.5 from the 8.1.6 server using this new description connection.
3. In the 8.1.6 server execute the import utility using a user with permissions in your 8.1.5 database and using the new entry of the tnsnames for 8.1.5 database.

With this your are doing the import with the import 8.1.6 utility into the 8.1.5 database through the network as a sqlplus connection.

Do you understand now?

Hi,

I think Shailendra what aarroyob trying to say is when you import using @(db_name of 8.1.5 server). It will import the data into 8.1.5 server not in 8.1.6 server. The only thing you are using here is import utility of 8.1.6. Correct me if I am wrong aarroyob.

Thanks

Yes, you only need to open a session in the 8.1.6 server:

If it is Unix via telnet or something similar
If it is NT take remote control with some tool

I'm not sure but probably you can to execute the catexp catalog 8.1.6 into your 8.1.5 server, do the import using the import utility 8.1.5 and then run catexp 8.1.5.

Could anybody confirm this?
