Thanks for this info about your problem. I will keep it hande for future reference.
May be I got lucky, because I did not encounter major issues when I upgraded 9.2.0.3 to 9.2.0.4 on
HP-UX 11i. Just one lib had to be renamed so Oracle could create it afresh. Other than that, it
was pretty smooth on 3 servers.
