What about foreign keys, functions, procedures, synonyms, roles, grants and
triggers (if any)?  I've used the db link and it's faster than imp/exp but
it doesn't do anything for other database objects.  Also, if you do have
foreign keys then a certain amount of pre-planning is necessary to move
data in the right order.

Vivek - If it is critical, I would test each alternative on a small amount
of data. I have had pretty good results from the data link. Depending on
the
number of CPUs, you can run multiple imports or multiple data links
simultaneously. Also watch your disk storage conflicts. For example, you
wouldn't want the source tables and destination tables on the same disk.
The
more you can spread I/O the better because that is likely to end up as your
bottleneck.

Qs What would be the FASTEST way to Load ALL Data from a Source Database
Existing in 7.3.4 into an Empty Target Database in 8.1.7.4 ?

NOTE - Creation Fresh (NEW) Database is a Must because Some of the
Data Dictionary Objects have got Corrupted & the Standard Migration of
the Same Oracle 7 Database to Oracle 8i did NOT Correct the Corruption
Either.


Qs Would Creating a Database Link between the 2 Databases & using
CREATE TABLE <TABLE NAME IN 8i DB> NOLOGGING PARALLEL (DEGREE n)
AS SELECT * FROM <TABLE NAME IN 7.3.4 DB>@DB_LINK
be FASTER than taking Full Database Export (exp) of the Oracle 7 Database
& Importing (imp) to the Oracle 8i Database ?

ASSUMPTION - Both Databases Exist on the SAME Storage Box & thus on the
Same
Machine

Thanks
