error importing dump file

577970May 18 2007 — edited May 23 2007
I am new to oracle and learning as I go along.

The following export utility creates a dump file backup of the database on our production environment.

exp arc/joy file=arc_backup.dmp log=arc_backup.log buffer=64000 owner=arc compress=y

Tried to import the file into the testing environment using the import utility

imp arc/joy file=arc_backup.dmp full=yes

get the following error messages
IMP-00013: Only a dba can import a file exported by another DBA.
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully.

Granted user arc sysdba priviliges with the command in sqlplus
GRANT SYSDBA to arc;

Can someone help me?
