dbms_tdb包解析

The procedure or function in this package checks if a database is ready to be transported to a target platform.

and if a database has external tables, directories or BFILEs. It will use dbms_output.put_line to 

output the external objects and their owners.

测试：

declare
b boolean;
begin
b:= dbms_tdb.check_external;
end;

The following directories exist in the database:
SYS.交流滤波器场, SYS.交流场, SYS.EQUIPTYPE2000, SYS.EQUIPTYPE2500, SYS.电力系统部分, SYS.站前区, SYS.EQUIPTYPE1200, SYS.直流场, SYS.EQUIPTYPE1000, SYS.换流广场, SYS.EQUIPTYPE1300
The following BFILEs exist in the database:
BH.BIN$K67XgMLMQL+/frRMeJPTHQ==$0, BH.BIN$4WDotQFfRjGDfXXRX6G41Q==$0, BH.BIN$yW203FPNTx+dq9iQWCFicg==$0, BH.PROJ_MODEL_FILES, BH.BIN$ftxiy5V4RQ+uSFA4ueTBaA==$0, BH.BIN$mJ0T31ukT+Sh8aUeIXUOng==$0, BH.MODEL_FILES, BH.BIN$sE6ltgxhTbONiPATfi2GPA==$0, BH.BIN$5ACZO4eOTWiZTsMNBHXF9w==$0

The DBMS_TDB package reports whether a database can be transported between platforms using the RMAN CONVERT DATABASE command. The package verifies that databases on the current host platform are of the same endian format as the destination platform, and that the state of the current database does not prevent transport of the database.

Overview

In many cases, Oracle supports transporting databases between platforms which have the same endian format. However, even when the endian formats are the same, a database must undergo a conversion process to move from one platform to another. There are also preconditions required for the process of transporting a database, such as having the database to be transported open read-only.

The DBMS_TDB package serves two purposes:

• Confirming that Oracle supports transporting a database from a given source platform to a given target platform

• Determining whether a database to be transported has been properly prepared for transport, and if not, identifying the condition that prevents database transport

The actual conversion is performed using the Recovery Manager CONVERT DATABASE command. For a complete discussion of the requirements for transporting a database, the process of converting a database for transport across platforms, and examples of the use of the DBMS_TDB subprograms in the conversion process, see Oracle Database Backup and Recovery User‘s Guide.

CHECK_EXTERNAL Function

This function determines whether a database has external tables, directories, or BFILEs.
