First, export/import should never be used as a database refresh as it is not a backup tool.

If you insist on importing an export file, the target database must be just a skeleton/shell. No objects or users other than those created at database creation.

You did not say how you took the export.

exp system/manager file=name of file.log dump=name of file.dmp full=y
i used this command for export.
In this case, clients want me to use imp/exp utility.
i know that it will be good if we use hot or cold backup.

Is this a statement or question? In either case, I have no idea what you are trying to say.

As mentioned before, if you do an import into anything other than a skeleton of a database, you will not get what you are looking for. you do know what import does not replace existing objects, but only adds or ignores.
