expdp hangs on defining

[swoopy]

Hi,

i have a Oracle 11g 11.2.0.4.0. I have mounted a NFS share an declare a dmpdir for my expdp.

During my first expdp run, the nfs-server becomes unavailable for a time. I killed this job. Now, the mountpoints working fine, but the expdp makes some trouble.

SQL> select * from dba_datapump_jobs;

no rows selected

There no jobs, for may datapump. If i do just a new connect as system user, the login still hangs:

expdp system

The state of this job, hangs on defining. What is the problem here?

What is in the alert log? You might still have a session hanging around from the data
pump export. You may need to restart your database. Hopefully you can log in as sys.
