OCM 12c Preparation - Create a plugged-in tablespace by using the transportable tablespace feature

Transporting whole tablespaces is a very good and practical way to move data from one Database to another. Oracle will generate a small dump with the object’s metadata and all you need to do is copy the datafiles and dumps to the new system.

In this topic, practice:

  • Check if Transport is possible with DBMS_TTS.TRANSPORT_SET_CHECK
  • Transportable expdp
  • Convert between different Endians
  • Transportable impdp.

Try also using Enterprise Manager Grid Control. It can be faster.

In 12c now we have a feature called FULL TRANSPORTABLE TABLESPACE feature. Practice it!
