The outgoing programmer is responsible for all of the end-of-expedition (EOX) activities.

...

Please read this entire document and EOX - detailrationale and FAQ. Expect to take 3 to 4 hours to complete this exercise. (I keep saying this only takes 15 minutes. But that really is just the individual database dump processes.) Do not hurry. If you are "fried"--work together. 

...

NOTE: While performing the EOX for expedition 384, it was discovered that the path represented by "data_pump_dir" did not exist.  You can discover what the data_pump_dir is supposed to be using this query (logged in as your DBA account):

select * from dba_directories;

The results have a lot of stuff that's not useful, but the DATA_PUMP_DIR should be there.  Currently it is /backup/LIMSJR/dpdump.  Note that "backup" is singular (it used to be plural) and there is apparently some desire to change this, so keep that in mind.  If you find that the folder does not exist, the command in this step will fail and you may need to get an MCS or a DBA on shore to help create it.

...

The MCS pick up the full export from  oemjr:/backup/export.

Inquire with the MCS. Ensure the (above) database content and the (below) ASMAN content are being taken to media for transport to HQ.
