Can someone tell me how to import METADATA to a file ?
I would like to use this to identify the tablespaces that I need to create for a full database import.

All I have is a dumpfile.

Later I will do a full database import as follows but I want to escape the errors of tablespace not available.

impdp system/?????@datahome FULL=YES LOGFILE=logfile1.log directory=dpump_dir dumpfile=dumpfile1.dmp 


Please advise.

BlackSwan,

I am not surprised that you are able to copy and paste documentation. However, neither you or the documentation (I had read before) answers my question,
how to import METADATA to a file. Now be a hero and share some syntax .

If you read the doc, you will find that the INCLUDE directive does what you want.

Read the documentation is not sufficient, you have to try to understand it too.

Here is an example of how to answer my question.

Run the following command and the sql file that is produced will have the queries to create the tablespaces among other objects.

impdp system/******@database directory=dpump_dir dumpfile=dumpfile.dmp sqlfile=sqlfile.sql keep_master=Y nologfile=Y 


You see. Now I will be a hero to anyone who seeks this information.

Thanks anyway.

why should we spend our time writing here what is already documented elsewhere?

If you desire to repost the Documentation set here, please proceed to do so.

No, its purpose is to learn you how to learn and find by yourself and then learn how to search in the documentation and read it in the first point.

We prefer to push people to smartness rather than to be dependent on our answers. Smile

I must admit you do a good job of pointing people to documentations. Laughing
