You will be okey, as longs your tablespace names are not changed. No matter how import it. You can always truncate all the table and reload 'em with imp/rows=y.

So, I don't see any problem here. If you want do it in 2 steps


Step-1:all the object structures will be created

rows=n

step-2:Just loads the data

rows=y

Make sure you sync this link details with above options.

Bottom Line, you need to have precreated tablespaces on the database you are trying to import. Because most of the filesystems and available freespace will not same from box to box. If you don't create and import, if fails when it tries to create that tablespace and can't find the same fileystem.
Just for that reason you create tablespaces upfront.
