i am doing the same thing, same platform. i just used dbimport and
dbexport. i have a list of my databases, (i'm moving a set of databases at
a time, then watching the system, and then moving more databases), and i
simply dbexport them off of one system and dbimport them onto the other.
i have a sciprt written to do this on both ends. one of the advantages
of this is that i don't have to do anything special with the indexes, they
are taken care of on the import.
if you need any help, or would like the procedures for what i am
doing, send me e-mail.
