Need to dump large amount of data

[cDevX99]

Here is what I think I can, and hope to do....

I would like to dump all of the data in a tablespace as well as the table structures and key structures to a script file that I can then run on a 9i database in another tablespace where the tables would be recreated as well as primary and foreign keys, then the data would repopulate the newly created tables. If anyone can be of any help in this, I would be very grateful.

This sounds like a job for the export/import utilities. That's how we upgraded from Oracle 7.3.4 to Oracle 8. I have no reason to believe it wouldn't also work going from 8 to 9.

Is there a command line way to do that? I have not found it. There does not seem to be a management server installed and I wish to make as few changes as possible on that dying production server.
