I must agree with Jared on this practice. By following this practice, you never bounce database to just get rid of hanging sessions holding locks as some listers are complaining about that they had to bounce database to get rid of hanging sessions becuase they killed process on database level f

But why would you want to? If you export using the 7.3.3 database using the 7.3.3 export utility you should be able to import it into your 8.1.7 database using the 8.1.7 import utility. It's backward compatible. You just can't go the other way (import an 8.1.7 export to 7.3.3). Jay Miller
