To export a DMP file for an individual table, you can use the Oracle expdp command. Here are the steps to export an individual table:

  1. Open the command line or terminal window and log in to the Oracle database server.
  2. Run the following command to export a DMP file of a single table:
  3. Export data from tables specified by the table name using the expdp command with the given credentials and save the dump file in the specified directory.
  4. Among them:
  5. The username/password are the credentials needed to access the database.
  6. The table name is the name of the table to be exported.
  7. The directory name is where the DMP file is exported. You can use an existing directory in Oracle or create a new one.
  8. The file name .dmp is the name of the exported DMP file. You can customize the file name.
  9. After running the command, Oracle will start exporting the data and structure of the specified table and save it as a DMP file.

Please note that when exporting a table, you may need some additional parameters such as TRANSPORTABLE=ALWAYS or FLASHBACK_SCN. The specific parameters depend on your needs and environment settings. You can find more information about the expdp command and its parameters in the Oracle official documentation.
