I once heard that paranoia is a GOOD quality for a DBA.
I'm sure the person who told me that was out to get me.....

Fear.
I agree with you. Migrate is the preferred method in my tool-box.

Can someone explain why anyone would opt for export/import as a path
to do an 8.0 to 8.1 upgrade? Doesn't the basic upgrade just consist
of starting the instance on the new ORACLE_HOME and running an upgrade
script? Why would someone undergo the disruption and complexity of a
full export/import when you can just leave the data where it is?
