How to create a nwetork directory in datapump

740047Dec 30 2009 — edited Dec 30 2009
Hi,

I am using export utility to export the database to a network folder \\oranasxxx\oraclebackup. This was possible because I can give the file=\\oranasxxx\oraclebackup\xxx.dmp

However, I am planning to move the backups to data pump where in I need to create a directory inside the database. (create directory dir as '\oranasxxx\oraclebackup')
when I create a direcotry like above. Oracle can not see the network directory.

says

ORA-39002: invalid operation
ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file.
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 475
ORA-29283: invalid file operation

Is there anyway to create a network directory location and take the data dump expdp backup directly to network folder.

Thanks for your suggestions.
