Hi all

Probably an easy question for an oracle dba or even power user:

I would like to copy the data warehouse schema on my laptop for
testing and developing our application.
- Unfortunately I have a 80GB HD and the DWH contains a few 'tera'.
- Fortunately, I don't need the data (ok perhaps a few master data). I
need only the schema to avoid 'table not found' errors and so on.

How can I copy all the tables (mat. views to be correct) without the
data from our dwh? But please don't tell me to dump the whole thing
and delete the data. DWH and networking team would kill me.

Good news: no indices, no constraints, just 1 to 1 raw data dumped out
of our business solution environment. But I only have access to mat.
views and not to the tables directly.

I tried a create table from select... that did the job more or less
but I guess I can't trust it (do mat views identify their underlaying
schema correctly?)

Forgive a spoiled ms developer and thank you in advance

use export/import [exp/imp]
You can use ROWS=NO on either utility
Therefore you can get all the objects without any data;
very small footprint.
