Exclude DBMS_SCHEDULER Jobs from expdp?

You have never thought about excluding DBMS_SCHEDULER jobs from a Data Pump export? Me neither but I’ve recently got a copy of an email for such a customer case from Roy who owns Data Pump as well. And this is the code example from Dean Gagne:

exclude.par:

exclude=procobj:"IN (SELECT NAME FROM sys.OBJ$ WHERE TYPE# IN
(47,48,66,67,68,69,71,72,74))"

• This will work only on export
• It’s an all or nothing approach

Quite interesting, isn’t it?
