Symptoms

When trying to create a full database export from an Oracle12c database using an externally defined used, the following errors are raised:

Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/POST_SYSTEM_IMPCALLOUT/MARKER
ORA-31693: Table data object "SYS"."KU$_USER_MAPPING_VIEW" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

ORA-31693: Table data object "SYS"."FGA_LOG$FOR_EXPORT" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges


An example:

sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> create user ops$testora identified externally;
SQL> grant connect to ops$testora
SQL> grant read,write on directory DATA_PUMP_DIR to ops$testora;
SQL> grant create table to ops$testora;
SQL> grant datapump_exp_full_database to ops$testora;
SQL> grant exp_full_database to ops$testora;
SQL> grant flashback any table to ops$testora;
SQL> grant become user to ops$testora;
SQL> alter user ops$testora quota unlimited on users;


After having verified that the externally defined user can connect to the instance, start the export operation:

expdp / full=y flashback_time=systimestamp dumpfile=expdp.dmp logfile=expdp.log
...
Processing object type DATABASE_EXPORT/POST_SYSTEM_IMPCALLOUT/MARKER
