I have migrated 7.1.4 to 8i using Export / Import on AIX 4.3

It was a bit ugly (until we figured out that both instances could NOT run on the same machine because of the post-wait kernel extension, after that it was a breeze, relatively speaking). If your development platform is set up already, that simplifies matters greatly. I found that the actual export, ftp binary, import into 8i took about 8 hours total. Make sure you create your users/schemas before you import. This Database was perhaps - 1.5 GB or so.
