4 Oracle Data Pump Legacy Mode

With Oracle Data Pump legacy mode, you can use original Export and Import parameters on the Oracle Data Pump Export and Data Pump Import command lines.

• Oracle Data Pump Legacy Mode Use Cases
  Oracle Data Pump enters legacy mode when it encounters legacy export or import parameters, so that you can continue using existing scripts.
