Move database to new server

Question

I hava Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 on Solaris 10.5 and wants to move it to Oracle 11.1.0.1.7 on same platform, but different server using exp/imp.
I am not aware of any other precondiction I need to meet before carrying on this exp/emp. If there is a precondition, I will appreciate if you can share it.
Does the database needs to shut down
Do I need to copy any files from old database
Here is my par file:
userid = system/****
file = /h/share/database/db/backups/CBEXP.dmp
log = /h/share/database/db/backups/CBEXP.log
statistics = none
full = y

Answer 1

You can do exp/imp if you have the same schema infrastructure and db objects at the target db. Otherwise you have to clone the database to the new target.
1. Create a new DB with DBCA at the target server
2. Shutdown the source and target databases
3. Do a cold backup (which means copying all datafiles to the target directory)
4. Startup the source db
5. Create a backup control file on the target db such as follows;
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "<SID_of_clone_database>" RESETLOGS
NOARCHIVELOG
-- SET STANDBY TO MAXIMIZE PERFORMANCE
MAXLOGFILES 5
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
MAXDATAFILES 100
MAXINSTANCES 1
MAXLOGHISTORY 4991
LOGFILE
GROUP 1 'D:\Oracle\Oradata\NUNDQOL\REDO01.LOG' SIZE 100M,
GROUP 2 'D:\Oracle\Oradata\NUNDQOL\REDO02.LOG' SIZE 100M,
GROUP 3 'D:\Oracle\Oradata\NUNDQOL\REDO03.LOG' SIZE 100M
-- STANDBY LOGFILE
DATAFILE
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\SYSTEM01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\UNDOTBS01.DBF',
'E:\ORACLE\ORADATA\NUNDQOL\CWMLITE01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\DRSYS01.DBF',
'E:\ORACLE\ORADATA\NUNDQOL\ODM01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\NUNTQOL.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\NUNTQOL_IAM.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\INDX01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\TOOLS01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\USERS01.DBF',
'E:\oracle\oradata\NUNDQOL\XDB01.DBF';
6. STARTUP NOMOUNT of the target database
7. execute the backup control file
8. RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL CANCEL USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
