Whenever you move Oracle software, you must relink. Especially with changes in the ORACLE_HOME and OS levels.

This is an 8.1.6.3 implementation running under Solaris 2.7. The directory names are different on the new box (i.e. ORACLE_BASE is not the same), and the O/S patch level is off a little. As a test, I moved the oracle software from one directory to another (on the same machine), and the database came up fine. I ran "relink all" just to get familiar with it; it seems to have worked fine, but it produces a lot of messages and it's hard to decide whether they can all be ignored or not.
