ORACLE IMPORT - Is INDEXFILE complete after IMP-00009 error (dump > 2GB)?

Asked by fletchwj in Oracle Database, Databases Miscellaneous, Oracle 9.x

Tags: IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file

Oracle 9i on Windows 2000 Server.

I'm importing a large dump and I want to get the INDEXFILE first. While running the import with the "INDEXFILE=" option, I always bomb out with the "IMP-00009: abnormal end of export file" message.

I don't think the dump is corrupted because it will import without the indexfile option - it just tries to go to the wrong tablespaces. I'm guessing this is because the dump is larger than 2 GB.

It did create an indexfile, but since it got the error I wondered if it is complete. Can I reliably use this indexfile to create the tables and keys, or did it just end somewhere in the middle of it all?Start Free Trial
