This would be alot of extra work and downtime compared to export/import but...

1)  upgrade to AIX 4.3.3  You might want to think about using AIX 64 bit here
(you can still run Oracle on 32 bit if you want).

2)  upgrade to 8.1.7.4

3)  AIX 4.3.3 is binary compatable with 5.1, so you _could do a cp.

4)  If you are using LPAR you may want to go to 5.2 because you can use dynamic
reconfig.

HTH,
Mike

I am looking for some expert suggestions for the migration of 300GB database to
different hardware. Currently database is 816 OPS on AIX 4.1 nodes. Database is
32bit and performance on this system is really slow. Export for 2GB table takes
2 hours. All the data is on EMC symmetric.
We are planning to migrate this database to AIX5.1 Oracle 8174 32Bit.
Oracle 816 on AIX5.1 is not supported.
'Cause OS is different we cannot use redirect restore and apply archive logs to
bring the database up.
Any suggestion regarding migration.

Thanks
