Ezequias-
first you will need to pg_dump everything.. schema..tables..functions then your Data into a text format which has no whitespace characters There are 2 bulk loaders available from
Oracle
1)Brand new DataPump 2)Tried and true sqlldr (which I recommend) I would highly recommend reading and understanding the Extract / Transform /Load document located at http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/etl2/etl2.htm Also triple check the extents you are allocating for the tablespace for tables to be inserted into that tablespace will guaranteed to be sufficient size (If you dont know the size of a block ask..as this isnt something you can fix later..unless you want to spend a 3day weekend doing a rollback..) Become familiar with LOAD DATA INFILE command links available from either Stanford (or Oracle) Be mindful that Oracle DB is used by ALL of the
major players
so inserting nulls which could violate any constraint (constraints being unique or foreign key) are forbidden In fact inserting nulls into any column is discouraged as it may violate the relationship of dependent table records to primary table If you have time and or
diskspace constraint you may want to look at Direct Path Loading which
creates preformatted data blocks
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server920/a96524/c21dlins.htm Caveat emptor with this option as the
logger is turned off and if there are any burps along the way you wont
know which record it burped on
