On the "I have heard that in version 9i, you can, in fact create a standby
database"
it it is not possible in the current release of 9i. This is called
a Logical Standby. 9iRel1 provides only a Physical Standby. 9iRel2
(due in May/June) might provide Logical Standby.
However, of course, this option is not available for Mitchell's requirement
as it would not work against an 8.0.5 source database.

Subject: RE: database clone:
Mitchell,
I have not been following the thread, but nonetheless, I will attempt to
add
some information. It is accurate to state that imp/exp is your only option
in 8.0.5 when you are trying to move a database from one platform (AIX) to
another (Solaris).
Other options all up through version 8.1.7 only apply when the platform is
not changing:
e.g. Transportable tablespace
Standby database
or RMAN Hot Backup/Recover from disk or tape.
I have heard that in version 9i, you can, in fact create a standby database
on a different platform because it actually converts the redo logs into SQL
type DML/DDL statements and applies them, but even this is no way to
re-create a 300 Meg database.
Of course, your option of imp/exp would be VERY time and resource
intensive.
HTH,
-Ron-
