Install fresh HP-UX-11 11 on a new box. Install 10.7 version for HP-UX 11 and Oracle 7.3.4.5 .
Apply all application patches for Hp 11 version on new box.
Copy over all your datafile and migrate to new binaries.
At this stage don't involve 8.1.7.4. U can migrate to 8.1.74. after applying interpro patches. It will be again a new venture.
Ask Oracle Support for specific guidance. We moved from 10.20 to 11 2 years back. I am not working for that employer anymore so I have no acccess for any specific info. H/ever I shall try my best to give answer to your specific questions

We did this before conversion to Financials 11.5.7 from 10.7. The only real issue is that you can't relink. Adpatch et all still work. Hopefully you are stable at this point so you won't have to patch too often. I would go for 8.1.7.4 db because 7.3.4 was out before HP-UX 11 saw the light of day. Having said that we did run 7.3.4.4 right up until the conversion. As far as customizations go I can't comment. We had ours in a custom application top. Migration used the cp command and a few ln -s commands as required. Nothing too major. Be aware though, if your patch is going to run adrelink you are in trouble.

Hi Has anyone converted Oracle Financials from HP_UX rev 10.20 (DB v7.3.4.4) to run on HP-UX rev 11? The only rev 10.20 host we have left is running our Oracle Financials 10SC. We are looking at converting to HP-UX rev 11 purely for disaster recovery reasons. It will be most useful to communicate with someone who has already been through the pain in order to get some idea about whether the move is justifiable. Upgrading to Financials 11i is not an option. Issues include: Should we go for 7.3.4.4 or 8.1.7.4 DB? Do we/can we match financials patch levels between the binary-incompatible rev10.20 & 11 versions of Financials? How are customizations best identified, duplicated and re-installed? Thanks trevor Disclaimer. This e-mail is private and confidential.
