How to make the import complete smoothly!

When you import an EXP, you may encounter constraints that prevent you from importing.
You can disable constraints to make the import complete!
When importing, I encountered the following problems:
Column 30 MOS
IMP-00019: row rejected due to ORACLE error 2291
IMP-00003: ORACLE error 2291 encountered
ORA-02291: integrity constraint (CMDB.CI_ELEMENT_LOCATION) violated – parent key not found
The processing steps are as follows:
SQL> create table cmdb.configuration_item_bak as select * from cmdb.configuration_item;
Table created.
SQL> alter table cmdb.configuration_item disable primary key;
alter table cmdb.configuration_item disable primary key
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02297: cannot disable constraint (CMDB.PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM) –
dependencies exist

SQL> Alter TABLE cmDB. configuration_item disable constraint PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM;
alter table cmdb.configuration_item disable PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM
*
ERROR at line 1:
ora-02297: cannot disable constraint (CMDB.PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM) –
dependencies exist

SQL> Alter TABLE CMDB. Configuration_item disable constraint PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM cascade;
Table altered.
SQL> alter table cmdb.configuration_item disable primary key;
Table altered.
SQL> Alter TABLE cmDB. configuration_item disable constraint PK_CONFIGURATION_ITEM;
Table altered.
 
I thought the import should be ok 🙂
imp/file=cmdb.dmp fromuser=cmdb touser=cmdb ignore=y
But the question remains?
Why is that?The original constraint error here was a violation of the constraint to import data in the file, regardless of whether the constraint on the table was disabled or not.
Just because the table already has the same data as the file, a constraint in the file was violated when importing it.
So you can complete the import by clearing the table data.
truncate table cmdb.configuration_item ;

then import:
-bask-3.00 $imp/file= CMdb.dmp Fromuser = CMDB Touser = CMDB ignore=y
