I’ve got a full Dump of an Database (all schema, system etc…)
Now I want to import just one schema of this file, is this even possible?
As far I got this command:
impdp sysadm/sysadm@sysadm schemas=sysadm directory=dp_dir dumpfile=export.dmp logfile=export.log
Would this work?
The problem is, in this dump file there are schemas that are already used and I can’t overwrite them (I can but it would be pain for me to recover them)
thanks for help
It should work as you have shown. You might also want to take a look at the TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION parameter to provide additional warm-fuzziness. With that you can skip tables that exist already.
That said, of course you will have a backup of your database before you start? Or if it’s a real pain to recover, perhaps you could create another test database to try this out on?
