  1. Loved the lab, learned a lot.

    I did encounter an issue with the session limits when trying to do a parallel export, 2 sessions is not enough. Also had to switch to multiple fixes to avoid hitting the ORA-39095: Dump file space has been exhausted limit. However using these 2 items parallel and multiple files, I took a 9 minute export to a 2 minute export on our system.

      Thanks for the feedback. I’m glad that you found it useful.

      In which of the labs did you encounter problems? If you could send me some more details on the problem – I’ll fix them right away.

      1. Sorry Dan, If I did not clarify the issue I encountered where on our servers. I encountered no issues in the lab environment. Maybe a little bit of user errors, but nothing in the lab itself.

        Keep up the great work.
