How can I export oracle database remotely? - database

I have been given oracle database credentilas as read/write only user.
Now for my experimenting stuff I want to export the data from oracle server to local VM.
I tried copy and inserting tables into postgres using pentaho but that failed.
Is there any way I can export that oracle data and insert in locally?
Can I install some free oracle on ubuntu and then I can do something to get that data?
I don't know oracle much

There are certainly more sophisticated ways of how to export database or a table on Oracle, but I usually export and copy the dbs with the help of Oracle SqlDeveloper. Just go to Tools menu and then select Database Export or Database Copy. Just remember that this is not the full db expot, ie. the users are not usually copied with this procedure.
The good thing is, that you may connect this tool to any database server that has Java Connector, and that makes it easy to export the data into an SQL Sever or Postgres.
If you want a more sophisticated way to export the data, check out the Recovery Manager (RMAN) and the DUPLICATE command documentation here: RMAN on Oracle

Use Oracle Data Pump. That is the full documentation for Oracle 10 Data Pump. Also you can find the documentation for 11g here and here.
impdp and expdp work as command line. You can invoke them directly from the server or from a machine that has Oracle client installed and a connection to the server.
Considering you have limited rights on the server you will not be able to do a full database export, but I guess you do not need to; you only need to export your working schema/tables. The documentation shows how to do that: use expdp export only a schema and/or only some objects.
Once the export is done, you can copy the dmp file to any other computer (including a VM) and use impdp to import all the data to another Oracle database. You need to set up the new database before the import (import does not create it for you).

I want to copy all the tables, it's data, views and SP's from one oracle DB to another.. I am using 12C. Softwares are DB viewer and SQL developer

I want to copy all the tables, it's data, views and SP's from one oracle DB to another.. I am using 12C. Software are DB viewer and SQL developer. Please note that I have tried twice on SQL developer but I am getting different errors.
There are utilities designed for such a purpose.
Use Data Pump Export (in the source database) and Data Pump Import (in the target database). Note that you should have access to an Oracle directory (database object, owned by SYS, who grants you read/write privileges on it so that you could store DMP file into a filesystem directory located on the database server). Normally, DBA does that (creates a directory and grants you privileges).
Alternatively, if you use the original EXP/IMP utilities, you can store the DMP file onto your own PC - which is (obviously) simpler. Oracle discourages us to use those utilities (since 11g).
Here are 12c Database Utilities; on the left hand side you'll see the menu; read about utilities I've just mentioned.

Need help for Zabbix Import/Export

I'm monitoring a few VM with one Zabbix server and I need to create another Zabbix server on another network. I think it's possible to export all the configuration (templates, actions, discovery rules, ...) without the data and import all of that in the new Zabbix server.
I have seen the export method but I don't know how to export actions, maybe directly export from the database but which table?
I'm using Zabbix version 4.2 and it's a MySQL database.
You can use https://github.com/maxhq/zabbix-backup to backup the configuration from the first server and restore it on the second one.
This will copy everything, including hosts, and needs the two servers to use the same db type (in your case, both MySQL). The second server can be the same release of the first one, or a following one: when starting, zabbix-server is able to upgrade the db schema.

Oracle Migrate Data from 1 Env to Another in commandline

I'm trying to migrate the Data from my One instance of Oracle 11g Server to another. For normal scenario, I'll use the SQLDeveloper and export the database.
But in current scenario, i'm not allowed to use SQLDeveloper and can access the Oracle DB only using CommandLine SqlPlus.
Can someone advice how to migrate data from one oracle 11g server to another using commandline?
Data Pump is probably the best solution for this task. If you want to export the entire database, the command would look something like this:
expdp [USER]/[PASS]#[DATABASE] full=Y directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=DataBaseExport.dmp logfile=DataPumpLog.log
More info can be found here: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28319/dp_export.htm#i1006388

In Oracle Datapump, can Network_Link be used to point to the same server?

I've seen lots of examples using network_link to remote servers, getting rid of the middle man create dump, import dump. I need to do this on the same server.
I have a production database.
I have a test database.
They are both on the same RAC, same servers.
I want to export the production database and put that data into the test database.
I can use expdp to dump the file on the my Linux server and then import.
What I'd like to do is use datapump network_link or some other parameter that will allow me to simply export and import all at once.
Is datapump the wrong tool?
Can this be done?

Database agnostic table/view export software?

Trying to search for a more elegant/overall solution to our common/basic data export tasks
I am convinced that there must be software out there that allows me to:
Define and persist a "setup" (definition of file format, delimiters, encoding, column names etc) from a GUI
Run on a schedule/from command line
Work on both Oracle and MSSql
However, I haven't found it yet... any tips?
what about using groovy to export the data to xml files.
see http://groovy.codehaus.org/Convert+SQL+Result+To+XML
for the gui thing, Oracle's SQL Developer can connect to Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server, MS Access and Sybase
The search ended in using products from http://sqlmanager.net.
They have products that covers the described needs, except that there are separate products for i.e. MSSQL and Oracle
