using two different locations in expdp/impdp

sometimes we want to use a differnet location for logfile different to that of dumpfile location. to do that we need to create 2 directory locations one for dumpfile and one for log file. this is same for expdp/impdp

create or replace directory dpdir_dmp as 'tmp/exp';
create or replace directory dpdir_log as '/tmp/log';

expdp username/paswd directory=dpdir_dmp dumpfile=exp_backup_user.dmp logfile=dpdir_log:exp.log full=y


hope this helps...
