    Is it possible to make Export and Import at the same time..

    Hi,

    Have tablespace 20 GB of data. I want to export it and import it to another database.

    I want to have less down time..

    Export itself takes long time. Can export and import be done at the same time. Any way out ..?

    Please elaborate a little bit more..

    The databases, both are in same server.. I want to send compressed file with PIPE and at the same time also I want to import to other database from the same compressed file....

    Is it possible..?

    you want to import into one db from the same file that the export is in the middle of producing?

    you can but if the process interrrupts you have to start all over again which can be longer than doing export then import seperately!

    Why don't you clone the database to the other server (with RMAN). That's very fast method.

    Export and Import can be done simultaneously using unix pipes. This is the faster than any other method I had used.

    Do you mean directly through a pipe, or through a fifo file/node?
