       The main problem i think is that 32bit oracle has its sga size limit, if i remember it correctly, it is only 1.75GB, which is not big enough for oracle running on S80?
		Maybe you can relink it to enlarge sga, i ever see document about enlarge sga via relink on solaris ,but not on aix.
		To move the server, i think install oracle on the new node and copy datafile and run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql should work.
		Good luck

¡¡¡¡

We have an 8.1.7.4 64-bit 24x7 OLTP database currently hosted on an RS6000 s80 running AIX 4.3.3 The database is scheduled to be migrated to a new box, RS6000 ip680, running AIX 5.1. According to the compatibility matrix on Metalink, 64-bit 8.1.7.4 is not certified on AIX 5.1, but the 32-bit version is. So one option is to simply downgrade to 8.1.7.4 32-bit when we make the move. Would we expect to see any performance degradation as a result of moving from 64-bit to 32-bit, notwithstanding the fact the degradation could be masked by virtue of moving to a newer, faster box?
Thanks.
