oracle exp不生成dumpfile，预估出实际导出文件的大小。

目的：在不创建dumpfile前预估出需要的导出文件大小。  适用于export     实验步骤如下：
OS:  Linux test20 2.6.18-238.el5 #1 SMP Sun Dec 19 14:22:44 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  1、 创建一个管道文件
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ mknod  exp.pipe p
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ ll exp.pipe 
prw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 0 Mar  1 13:17 exp.pipe


  2、dd命令往文件中写入
dd if=/oracle/exp.pipe of=/dev/null bs=1024 & 
  3、导出需要的对象，设置dumpfile为exp.pipe
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ exp yyf/yyf file=/oracle/exp.pipe  tables=yyf

[1]+  Done                    dd if=/oracle/exp.pipe of=/dev/null bs=1024


  4、估算完后，查看exp.pipe文件大小
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ ll
prw-r--r--  1 oracle oinstall         0 Mar  1 13:21 exp.pipe      <<-------由此看出实际是没有写入数据。原因在于of=/dev/null


  5、实际导出，并查看文件dumpfile大小。
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ exp yyf/yyf  file=/oracle/yyf.dmp tables=yyf
About to export specified tables via Conventional Path ...
. . exporting table                            YYF     807920 rows exported
Export terminated successfully without warnings.
[oracle@test20 oracle]$ ll  yyf.dmp
-rw-r--r--  1 oracle oinstall  87916544 Mar  1 11:44 yyf.dmp


ps:现在的磁盘价格，根本用不着估算的这么准确。
