CONSISTENT and FLASHBACK_TIME parameters in export

Pete_Sg1Oct 25 2012 — edited Oct 25 2012

This is what I gather about CONSISTENT (Original exp) and its datapump equivalent FLASHBACK_TIME


If i give CONSISTENT=Y (for exp) or FLASHBACK_TIME=SYSTIMESTAMP (for expdp datapump) and start an export job at 3PM , oracle will export all tables (and all other objects ) as of 3PM. Any changes to schema objects done after 3PM will be ignored. I think Oracle internally uses UNDO tablespace for this feature.


From your experience, what are the consequences you had by not setting CONSISTENT=Y (for exp) or FLASHBACK_TIME=SYSTIMESTAMP (for expdp datapump) ?
