How to export tables from multiple schemas with Oracle Data Pump in Oracle 10g and 11g databases

How to export tables from multiple schemas with Oracle Data Pump in Oracle 10g and 11g databases

Lets now try to export tables from different schemas in Oracle 10g database on a Linux server.
[oracle@localhost ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba

We are assuming that a1 and a2 are 2 schemas  with a common table t1
[oracle@sap1]> expdp ‘”/ as sysdba”‘ directory=DATAPUMPDEMO_exp
dumpfile=a1-a2_tables logfile=a1-a2_tables tables=A1.T1,A2.T1

UDE-00012: table mode exports only allow objects from one schema

As you can see you can not export tables from different schemas by using “tables” parameter in expdp in Oracle 10g.
What you should do is create a table and insert the names of the tables to be exported to this table and use the “schemas” and “include” parameter in expdp command.
A1@ORCL > create table expdp_tables (table_name varchar2(30));

Table created.

A1@ORCL > insert into expdp_tables values (‘T1′);

1 row created.

A1@ORCL > commit;

Commit complete.
You only need to insert the distinct names of all the tables into “expdp_tables” schema. Put the names of the all the distinct schemas whose tables will be exported in the “schemas” parameter.
In that method you export all the tables in “expdp_tables” table from both schemas, this means if a specific table name exist in both schemas and you only want to export one of them, you can not do that.
[oracle@sap1]> expdp ‘”/ as sysdba”‘ directory=UURAL_DATAPUMPDEMO
dumpfile=a1-a2_tables logfile=a1-a2_tables schemas=A1,A2
INCLUDE=TABLE:\”IN \(SELECT table_name FROM a1.expdp_tables\)\”

Lets now try to export tables from different schemas in Oracle 11g database on a Linux server.

[oracle@localhost ~]$ expdp ‘”/ as sysdba”‘ directory=DATA_PUMP_DIR dumpfile=a1-a2_tables logfile=a1-a2_tables tables=A1.T1,A2.T1

As you can see, in Oracle 11g, you can export tables from different schemas by using “tables” parameter in Export Data Pump Utility and this is not possible in Oracle 10g.
