Not entirely true. At least on Solaris 8, we were able to successfully migrate directly from 8.1.7.0 to 10g (10.1.0.2). I don't have the docs with me, but I'm fairly certain that anything lower (i.e. 8.1.6) would require an interim migration step.

Kind regards,
Lex.
If you're going to take more than a month or so to plan this, you might as well upgrade to 8.1.7 first. I can't recall if one can migrate from 8.1.6 to 10g, its been several years since I used 8.1.6.
