Questions tagged [expdp]

For questions about the Oracle Data Pump export (invoked with the expdp command). Use together with the [oracle] tag, and include the appropriate version tag, such as [oracle-12c]. If the question applies to both the impdp and expdp commands, do not use this tag; use [datapump] tag instead.
