Hi,
If u r using oracle version 8.1.7 than u can use oracle upgrade assistant to upgrade ur DB. But anyhow if u r using version less than 8.1.7 then to use upgrade assistant first u have to upgrade ur DB to the version 8.1.7 after that only u can use upgrade assistant.
Upgrade Assistant can be used in two ways i.e. manual and auto means using wizards, for more check oracle doc for same.
But y u dont want to use EXP/IMP according to me its not a bad approach to use EXP/IMP for upgradation.
Daljit Singh.

You can migrate from 8i to 9i either using the database upgrade assistant or export/import. If you are choosing the later method,its fairly straightforward.
- install 9i
- create a fresh 9i database with the necessary & tuned block_size,tablespaces,users,instance config
- export the 8i database using 8i exp. Make sure there are no updates to this 8i database,during the export.
- import the schemas into 9i database using 9i imp
- take care of other things like grants,public synonyms,database triggers,dbms_jobs
- perform any other post migration tasks on the new database.
If something goes wrong,you still have your 8i database to start over again.
