Yes, I use that method to move from an old database to a new database. My
scripts drive off of DBA_Users, with User_ID ranges and UserName includes
and excludes to pick and choose which schemas get copied. The list of
schemas becomes the Owner= list in the single export from the old
database, as well as the FromUser= and ToUser= lists in the single import
into the new database.
Of course before the imp into the new DB, I've already run scripts in the
new DB to create the users, assign roles, system privs, tablespace quotas,
create public DB links, etc. Those scripts were created from scripts run
against the old DB. It's very fast and flexible, allowing me to tweak
roles, privs, and even to consolidate schemas by adjusting the ToUser=
list in the imp *.par file.
I've done this from 9i to 9i DBs where expdp and impdp weren't an option,
as well as from 9i to 10g. I'll have to explore the expdp and impdp
options further. Sounds appealing for getting schemas into a new 10g DB.

Hrishy,
Why would you want to do an exp with full=Y?
I would simply recreate any scripts to create local roles and users.
Include any privs assigned to each user in the recreate scripts.
Run these scripts to create the roles and users.
Export and import each schema individually. Export with Oracle 8 and
Import with Oracle 10.
Resolve any problems. Should be a snap.
You don’t say how big your database is and this may be a deciding factor
in how you do this.
Hope this helps.
Tom

Hi
It doesnt seem to say anywhere that i can export the whole 8i database
with full=y (including sys and system users) and then import into 10g
using full=y(including sys and system)

Hi,
Oracle has the Oracle Database Upgrade Guide. In this the method is
mentioned.
See
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/preup.htm#i694345
. Start reading from the paragraph Export/Import

Onderwerp: Oracle8i to 10g upgrade using exp and imp
Hi
I would like to know any metalink note or Oracle documentation link which
spells out that i can do exp full=y on 8i database and imp full=y into 10g
database.
I searched this but unable to locate that this is a a supported method for
upgrading from 8i to 10g
regards
Hrishy
