If you are on Unix, you can pipe the export into a "split" command and break the
file into multiples and compress on the fly. There's a note on metalink about it
(note 30528.1)

Also, I *think* in 8.1.7 you can specify the size and names of the export files,
so that Oracle will automatically break the large file into several smaller
ones.

Check the Utilities manual

  >----------------------------------------------------|




Hi all,
My export dumps are too big (80 GB) for my filesystem and I'm looking for a
way
to compress them on the fly -ie without taking *.dmp to disk first but
straight *.dmp.gz
Anybody with an idea on how to archive this ?
Thanking you,
