I did an 8.0.something(4 or 5) upgrade to 8.1.6. First I had to
reinstall the OS (well actually the sys. admin. dudes did
that) from 10.20 to 11. They reinstalled instead of upgrade
because it went from 32-bit to 64-bit. Then we put the logical
mounts for the database back in and did the upgrade. That
really did not take long. Make sure you increase the size
of the system tablespace first as 8i needs a bigger one.
Also, I am not sure which option puts in the u805.sql script
in but I did not have it in there and I had to call
Oracle and get them all shipped to me. Make sure you have
it there first. I have a feeling its the migration portion
although that is not the case with 8.0.6.

We want to do an 8.0.5 to 8i upgrade (HPUX). There are six databases
on the system where the upgrade is required. How long does the
upgrade typically take? What kind of downtime should be expected?
Are there any major "gotchas" of doing the 8.0.5 to 8i upgrade?
