Hi,

Im trying to convert EE 12.1.0.2.0 to SE 12.1.0.1.0 with expdp/impdp.

I've found example of converting EE 11.2.0.1 to SE 11.2.0.4 where it is stated: "During import to standard edition we must use keyword VERSION=11.1 to be able to import empty tables."

Should we use VERSION param during impdp EE 12.1.0.2.0 to SE 12.1.0.1.0 to be able to import empty tables? If yes which version number should I put in impdp command?

Br,
Dario

To my knowledge, the 'version=11.1' was to handle a specific case of moving from 11.1 to 11.2, and the new deferred segment creation.

You should not need it for a 12 to 12 move.
