My thoughts on below:

This will not be supported by Oracle Support since you are changing hardware/os.
Not sure if the datafile formats are compatible between sun and hpux.

alter tablespace xyz begin backup;

copy the files.

alter tablespace xyz end backup;

Rinse and repeat as needed.

alter system archive log current;

copy the logs and control files.

recover and open the database on HPUX.

There might a detail or two I left out because I haven't done it in a while, and I forget things. Like I forgot Angel's last line in the finale. Something like: "I want that dragon." But I probably don't have it just right, and it irritates me, because the more I think about it, the more I think it was a good last line.
