>> ORA-01034: ORACLE not available

the problem is , the database you are trying to export /import is NOT up and available.
or
Your ENV is not properly set. You must be looking into WRONG instances.

>>sgmcdb01% svrmgrl

above command assumes you have set ORACLE_SID=something
and by default tries to login into database/instance named SOMETHING.

Thanks for the reply. But my database is up and running cos the clients can do their normal operations. I did set the environment correct
setenv $ORACLE_SID (my_db)
when i do a ps -ef | grep pmon and smon i do see my instance up and running.
Is there anything else i can do?

I just found something disturbing. Under the /opt/oracle/admin ... i found the entire folder of the db instance missing. can oracle store this directory in any other location?. The db was created using the GUI some time ago.

But did you export the Oracle environment variables before starting import ?
Oracle needs to have them globally, not only settled with setenv or var=xxxx
I am not that familliar with csh or bash, but in ksh we always script with
export ORACLE_SID=mydb
