Hello Gurus,
I need some information regarding a part of a table archiving.

I am trying to archive a part of a table ( for e.g. data which is more than 6 mths old ). The data which is being archived may/maynot be required later on.

What is the best possible way to do this?

Thanks and Regards
Vikram Agarwal

Partition the table on date range and put each partition in separate tablespace. Then export the archived tablespaces medata as transportable.

Backup the tablespace datafiles on tape and drop them from the database. If you need to restore just copy the datafiles and import the metadata with import.

Hope that helps,

If I have many such tables(of which I intend to take partial backup of for
archival purposes) , can I keep all the partitions of all the tables in a
single tablespace and take a backup of that tablespace ?

Also how to take export of the metadata?

Thanks & Rgds
Vikram
