Datapump on 11.2 RAC with PARALLEL > 1:
Error:
ORA-31693: Table data object "SCOTT"."ESCSTATUS" failed to load/unload and is being skipped do error:
Cause:From 11.2, Datapump new parameter CLUSTER is introduced.
CLUSTER : Default=Y
Purpose :
Determines whether Data Pump can use Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC)
resources and start workers on other Oracle RAC instances.
Syntax and Description : CLUSTER=[Y | N]
Solution:
To force Data Pump to use only the instance where the job is started and to replicate pre-Oracle Database 11g release 2 (11.2) behavior, specify CLUSTER=N.
Example:
$ expdp userid=SYSTEM/***** DIRECTORY=EXPORT DUMPFILE=expdp%U.dmp CLUSTER=N PARALLEL=3.
