oracle-database where-clause clause expdp

expdp where clause errors

I'm attempting to do an export dump based on a query clause. The table holds 2.37bil rows and i need to dump a subset of those. Here is my parfile

DIRECTORY=EXPSOURCE
DUMPFILE=obs_fact_%u.dmp
PARALLEL=4
TABLES=schema1.observation_fact
QUERY='schema1.observation_fact:"WHERE concept_cd < ''ICD10CM:N93.0'';"'

This is producing the following error

ORA-31693: Table data object "SCHEMA1"."OBSERVATION_FACT" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended

I tired wrapping the concept_cd code in quotations rather than double ' but receiving the same error. I've been researching for awhile now with no advancement.

Solution

QUERY clause is wrong because:

you don't enclose it into single quotes
you don't have to use two single quotes around strings
you don't terminate the WHERE clause with a semi-colon

which means that something like this should work:

QUERY=schema1.observation_fact:"WHERE concept_cd < 'ICD10CM:N93.0'"

Here's an example based on Scott's schema: parameter file (which looks similar to yours; I can't use the PARALLEL option as I'm on 11gXE):

directory=ext_dir
dumpfile=obs_fact_%u.dmp

tables=dept
query=dept:"where dname < 'VANCOUVER:N93.0'"

Execution:

c:\Temp>expdp scott/tiger@xe  parfile=parfile_01.txt
