Should Oracle be relinked if AIX 4.1.4 is upgraded to 4.1.5 ?

We have Oracle 7.3.2 in AIX 4.1.4. We like to move the Oracle system to another machine which has AIX 4.1.5. The Oracle software and database files are in two harddisks which are attached to the AIX 4.1.4 machine. Our AIX system administrator thinks we just need to disconnect the harddisks from the old machine (AIX 4.1.4) and connect to the new machine (AIX 4.1.5), and he just needs to do some work like importvg, etc.. And of course, the Oracle configuration files have to be copied to the new machine and the server's hostname has to be changed, e.g., /etc/listner.ora, /etc/oratab, etc.

We tried the way described above, and strated the server in the new machine (AIX 4.1.5) with the script startdb, we got the following error messages:

Oracle Server Manager Release 2.3.2.0.0 - Production

  0509-037 System error - error data is : oracleRDG

....

Any idea? Thanks in advance.
