Hi I would much appreciate help

We have a 150-200GB database on Oracle 8.1.7 which resides on a HP-UX
32-bit machine.  We are upgrading the HP-UX machine to 64-Bit.

Is the only way of extracting/inmporting the data via the exp/imp
utitlity due to the change in bits?  Is there any other way?

Thanks

Bob
