We can transfer statistics between servers allowing consistent execution plans between servers with varying amounts of data. This is possible using the DBMS_STATS package
Here are the steps to do for a table
Step 1. Create the stat table
EXEC DBMS_STATS.CREATE_STAT_TABLE('SCOTT,'STATTAB', 'TOOLS');
Step 2 Export table statistics to statistics table.
EXEC DBMS_STATS.EXPORT_TABLE_STATS(OWNNAME=>'SCOTT',TABNAME=>'EMP', STATTAB=>'STATTAB',STATID=>'EXP_1',STATOWN=>'SCOTT);
Step 3 Export the user statistics table into an exp file
exp file=stats.dmp log=stats_exp.log tables=scott.stattab
Step 4 Import the exp file into another database
imp file=stats.dmp log=statistisc_import.log
Step 5 Import table statistics from the statistics table to the data dictionary table
EXEC DBMS_STATS.IMPORT_TABLE_STATS(OWNNAME=>'SCOTT',TABNAME=>'EMP', STATTAB=>'STATTAB',STATID=>'EXP_1',STATOWN=>'SCOTT);
Step 6 Drop the stat table
EXEC DBMS_STATS.DROP_STAT_TABLE('SCOTT','STATTAB');
Here are the steps to do for a schema
Step 1. Create the stat table
EXEC DBMS_STATS.CREATE_STAT_TABLE('SCOTT,'STATTAB', 'TOOLS');
Step 2 Export schema statistics to the user statistics table.
EXEC DBMS_STATS.EXPORT_SCHEMA_STATS(OWNNAME=>'SCOTT', STATTAB=>'STATTAB',STATID=>'EXP_SC_1',STATOWN=>'SCOTT');
Step 3 Export the user statistics table into an exp file
exp file=stats.dmp log=stats_exp.log tables=scott.stattab
Step 4 Import the exp file into another database
imp file=stats.dmp log=statistisc_import.log
Step 5 Import the schema stats from the User statistics table to the data dictionary
EXEC DBMS_STATS.IMPORT_SCHEMA_STATS(OWNNAME=>'SCOTT', STATTAB=>'STATTAB',STATID=>'EXP_SC_1',STATOWN=>'SCOTT');
