In interactive-command mode, the current job continues running, but logging to the terminal is suspended and the Export prompt (Export>) is displayed.
To start interactive-command mode, do one of the following:
From an attached client, press Ctrl+C.
From a terminal other than the one on which the job is running, specify the ATTACH parameter in an expdp command to attach to the job. This is a useful feature in situations in which you start a job at one location and need to check on it at a later time from a different location.
Table 2-1 lists the activities you can perform for the current job from the Data Pump Export prompt in interactive-command mode.
