Hi,

I want to update my DEV/TEST database with a copy of PROD.

But before doing so, I want to be able to save the users and their privs, database link etc., run the copy/clone and then restore the users, their privs, database link.

Does anyone know of any existing scripts or Metalink Note that I can use as a reference to achieve what I want to do?

Any advise or suggested link will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It depends on how you define "cloning".
To me, cloning is is full database duplicate/restore using RMAN, which means all users and privileges are already included.
If you use exp/imp tools, please look into BlackSwans suggestion.
Many GUI tools like Oracle SQL developer (free) can get the DDL of the schema/users with a few clicks.
