Advantages of using parfile expdp impdp
- You can hide the passwords from the command prompt by putting the password in the parfile. Otherwise if you mention the password in the command prompt, it will show up in the ps –ef command.
- The length of the command which you can type in the Operating system command line is limited. You cannot type a very lengthy expdp / impdp command with more number of arguments. In this situation you can create a parameter file(parfile) and run with the datapump.
See One Example
$ cat exp.par
userid=scott/tiger
job_name=query_export
query=scott.emp:"WHERE ENAME in ('JAMES', 'TURNER')"
tables=scott.emp
directory=EXP_DIR
dumpfile=QUERY_EXP.dmp
logfile=QUERY_EXP.log
$ expdp parfile=exp.par
