NOLOGFILE

Default: NO

Purpose

Specifies whether to suppress creation of a log file.

Syntax and Description

NOLOGFILE=[YES | NO]

Specify NOLOGFILE =YES to suppress the default behavior of creating a log file. Progress and error information is still written to the standard output device of any attached clients, including the client that started the original export operation. If there are no clients attached to a running job and you specify NOLOGFILE=YES, then you run the risk of losing important progress and error information.

Example

The following is an example of using the NOLOGFILE parameter:

> expdp hr DIRECTORY=dpump_dir1 DUMPFILE=hr.dmp NOLOGFILE=YES

This command results in a schema-mode export (the default) in which no log file is written.
