Joan, From what I have found Oracle 9.2 64-bit can be run in a 32-bit mode on AIX 5L. So, one can have 5L running Oracle 8.1.7.4 and 9.2.0 in 32-bit modes. However, the H/W running AIX must be 64-bit. Please see note # 169426.1. Let us know what Oracle support has to say. Cheers! -

Plan to get there: - Boot AIX 4.3.3 server to 64 bit - Install Oracle 9.2 64 bit Patch for AIX 4.3.3 - Change env scripts to point to Oracle 9.2 - Migrate/upgrade all databases from 8.1.7 to 9.2 - Upgrade AIX to 5.2 - Install Oracle 9.2 64 bit binaries Then there is the alternate plan: - Free up

As AIX 4.3.3 goes out of service this year, we need to upgrade our AIX box to AIX 5.2 We have both Oracle 8.1.7(32 bit) and Oracle 9i Release 2(9.2.0.1.0) (64 bit) installed on that box. Will upgrading to AIX 5.2 cause any problems for Oracle? Any issues etc?? John -- Please see the

Hey... we are in the same boat... except I have to migrate our Apps to 9.2.0.2 to get us there... From what I UNDERSTAND... (ie... from what I finally drug out of Metalink analyst)... you will probably need to install the 9.2 binaries for 5L (it is the only different set that I have been able to

My understanding was that if AIX 5L was run in 64bit mode then Oracle 9i Release 2 was the first release supported, but if not running AIX 5 in 64bit mode then previous version of Oracle would be OK. But maybe I am confused? John -Original Message- Sent: 27 February 2003 11:34 To:

It appears that way. We are also pondering on this upgrade as well. But if one takes this route, that is, running 5L in 32-bit mode, one can not install 9i on the same server. And Oracle has not certified 8.1.7 64-bit on AIX 5L. It is not planned to be available, either. So, we are leaning

I thought that you had to have Oracle 9 release 2 if running AIX 5 in 64bit mode, not the other way around. We have a customer who is intending to run Oracle 9i Release 2 on AIX 5 running in 32bit kernel mode. Can anyone say for definate whether this will work or not? John -Original

John/Kirti, We are in the same boat with you. However, we were looking to first upgrade to AIX 5L first and leave our existing 8.1.7 32-bit databases (booting the server in 32 bit mode). In a subsequent phase we would upgrade 8.1.7 32-bit to 9.2 64-bit. The downside to this is that it will

Tracy, We are still debating this issue with our preferred App Vendor... Since there is no 64-bit 8.1.7.4 on AIX 5L, upgrading to 9i is what we will pursue. Testing the Vendor App on 9i/AIX 4.3.3 should not take considerable amount of time, as *none* of the new features of 9i would be used
