----------- >= -----
The problem causes incorrect data to be loaded in the database when a dump is imported.
The problem occurs silently and so there are no errors during the export.
Before export set the environment variable ORA_OCI_NO_OPTIMIZED_FETCH to 1.
setenv ORA_OCI_NO_OPTIMIZED_FETCH 1
ORA_OCI_NO_OPTIMIZED_FETCH=1; export ORA_OCI_NO_OPTIMIZED_FETCH
define/job ORA_OCI_NO_OPTIMIZED_FETCH 1
No patches are currently available.
