If you cannot recover the database, you *** CAN *** take a cold backup
and open it elsewhere, on a 5.2 box, for example. You only have to make sure
that you loaded the right post_wait extensions. I advise you to use the ones
from 9.2. Boot the machine in 32 bit mode. No migration is necessary, cold
backup actually works in 32 bit mode. IBM went to great lengths to ensure
the
compatibility. I'll risk extreme unpopularity with IBM-bashers, but they did
an admirable job. I tried things with AIX 4.3 and the 8.1.7.1 database and
it
worked.

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
