Hello All,

We are trying to reorganize a 13m recs table having a LOB column.We plan to export this table of 6 columns and import back moving the second column to the last position in the column order using Datapump:

DATA_TABLE
(
DATA_ID VARCHAR2(255),
DATA_OBJECT BLOB, <--- the LOB segment has 1350 extents
PAGE_INDEX INTEGER,
DATA_TYPE INTEGER,
ARCHIVE_FLAG INTEGER,
ARCHIVE_DATE DATE,
WF_ID NUMBER
)

After import using data pump, the table needs to be:

DATA_TABLE
(
DATA_ID VARCHAR2(255),
PAGE_INDEX INTEGER,
DATA_TYPE INTEGER,
ARCHIVE_FLAG INTEGER,
ARCHIVE_DATE DATE,
WF_ID NUMBER
DATA_OBJECT BLOB <--- the LOB segment has 1350 extents
)

Please help...

btw,we also plan to resize the LOB structure in the process.

Thanks & Regards,
Abhijit

in SQL the order of columns is not relevant.

Thanks BlackSwan.. Thats what I was thinking too.

probably then Oracle data pump doesnt allow re-order of columns then?
