Export to NLA0: would do 100% compression. Nope, I'm afraid that you can not
use pipes in VMS. You may be able to create a permanent mailbox and write a 
program that would compress it and forward it through the network, but it
would
be an extremely complicated thing. My advice is to export it to a DLT, and
then 
import it from the tape. You can do that by specifying RECORDSIZE argument
and
specifying MUA0: (or any othe MU device) as an export file. Be sure not to
specify 
an MT: device, those are not supported for the export.

Hi VMS & DBA gurus,

As part of migration process from Oracle v7 to v8i, we are trying to do the
complete export of our database. Due to the lack of disk space, we can not
land such a big export file.

Our v7 database is on VMS platform and I am looking for the VMS script,
which does dynamic compression (like the way pipes work on Unix systems)
while export is running.

If any one has such script and would like share it, please post it on the
list.

I really appreciate for your help.

Thanks in advance,

Best Regards,
Prasad
