migrate database with imp exp

I prefer to use exp/imp to migrate databases.

I first create a fresh new database with a new spfile, a new system tablespace, a new undo, locally managed tablespace, automatic segment space management.

I do not do a full exp. I prefer a schema export. It only exports the schema that I want, not WMSYS or PERFSTAT... I do not want to have old stuff in my system tablespace neither.

What is missing by schema import ? profiles, roles, tablespaces, users, public synonym, public database link, privileges

1) generate create statement profiles, roles, tablespaces, users, public synonym, public database link, privileges

for example with toad or with dbms_metadata. I am using sql + spool. Also possible is PLSQL.

2) export database with OWNER=user1,user2,... so all your users but not SYS, SYSTEM, PERFSTAT, DBSNMP, WMSYS, TSMSYS. Only your own users, not the one created by oracle

3) create a new db

4) create profiles, roles, tablespaces, users on the new db

5) grant dba to public !!! yes. a bit creasy, but it is convenient to do the import without warning/errors.

6) import

7) create the public synonym, public database link, privileges

8) revoke dba from public (!)

9) recompile the db

Well, I have written all that in a script, so migrating a db is no longer a problem to me :-) I can do 7.3 --> 10.2 migration. And I am sure my db is clean. I have undo and temporary tablespace. I can have Java or ASM. I have only 10.2 system objects in my 10.2 database. Since I am using exp/imp, it is no problem to change os/server/domain/bitwordsize.

I did something similar a month ago. Yours has far more detail, thanks!

Good job. So where is your script? ;-)

well, my whole script is very specific to my environment here and quite hudge, but to generate the sql, I give you the sql files.

note that it is not fully automated. I always control the generated script, especially /tmp/create_tablespaces.sql, resize the datafiles, change extent management clause if necessary.

I really appreciate that you are sharing your script.

In the section, ==> spool_public_synonyms.sql <==
, I believe there may be an error.

An synonym is public if the owner is public. Otherwise it is a private synonym.

|| '"'
|| synonym_name
|| '" for '
|| DECODE (table_owner, NULL, NULL, '"' || table_owner || '".')

the private synonyms are exported and therefore, I do not need to generate script for them. but thanks to your remark, I noticed that for the public synonyms, there is truely a missing AND OWNER='PUBLIC' condition.

nice scripts! I'm missing user quotas:

select 'alter user ' || username || ' quota ' || decode(max_bytes,-1,'unlimited',to_char(max_bytes/1024)||'K') || ' on ' || tablespace_name ||';'
from dba_ts_quotas;

Really good stuff! I was trying to migrate a database using database upgrade assistant from oracle 9.2 to oracle 10.2, but could not do it. Could you please tell me the steps?
