Trying to determine which word size is being used on an 8.1.7.2 database on HP-UX 64-bit UNIX system. When I query v$instance, I see nothing mentioned about either 32 or 64-bit, so am I to assume that it is set to 32-bit? When I execute: "file oracle" in UNIX, I get "oracle: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked -not stripped" This doesn't say ELF-32 or ELF-64. Any advice?

Try executing Server Manger at the prompt. If it is 64-bit, it will say 64-bit, else your Oracle is 32-bit.

I just upgraded to 8.1.7.4.0 64-bit (AIX 4.3.3) and here is the output of Server Manager:

My old 8.1.6.2.0 32-bit says this (no mention of 32-bit):

Good luck.
