Why not backup and restore using EXP and IMP commands?

Why not make the backups when users are not using the system. Is the system always being used?

Thanks for Reply, Ya my server has to run 24X7, right now we are using the method cold backup for recovery, we stopped to take logical backup using EXP and IMP, as my production database is around 35GB, for EXP it is taking 5 hrs time and for IMP it is taking 24hrs. So we moved to cold backup, right now as i joined new i preferred to take recover production database using archives, for that i am trying to recover database using archives. What my main idea is taking backup of archives from production database and trying to recover test database so that i can plan for replication basing only on archives, my test database has also same configuration which has production database server. Pls suggest me what to do, is the above method is correct or not? if not pls suggest me the right one.

AWAITING FOR GOOD RESPONSE...

8i is quite old. You'll probably get more problems with it again later. Is migrating to 10g or later an option? You could then use the DATAPUMP utility.
