Well here is a poser!!!
I have a HP Unix Server running Oracle 7.3.4. I need to run a full database export. Unforunately, I do not have enough disk space to enable me to run the export. So here's the question Can i run the export util on my unix box and tell it to run the dmp file to another machine i.e an NT box or could run an export to another Unix box ?

Yes U can

Mount an NFS FS.
Or export from NT...
Or Create a named pipe ( mknod export to the pipe )
Run Gzip or compress ( or other )

ex

mknod mypipe p
exp FILE=mypipe
cat mypipe &#124gzip > mydump.dmp.gz

And U've got an already compressed dump ( save lot of
disk space ! )

If U have another UNIX server mount another FILE SYSTEM:
edit /etc/exports
add the entry for OTHER_FS ( in Read write mode )
mount other_server:/OTHER_FS /MOUNT_POINT
And run> exp FILE=/MOUNT_POINT/MY_DUMP

or

Install Oracle on Win NT
make an entry for Ur oracle database in tnsnames.ora
run> exp user/passwd@REMOTE_DATABASE

Best way is to have a little free space .. erase some unused files

Many others ways .. no time and no place here ...
