When I build a new test database I create the database and run all the required Oracle scripts. Then I do a full import of a production export. This works pretty well but I miss some of the grants and The full import wants to create tablespaces that I may or may not want created. I get a lot of errors on system objects. Does anyone have the proper steps to create an exact copy of a production database using export / import?

Thanks!
