OS Upgrade from HPUX 11.0 to 11.11

[Mohammed Salim Syed]

Hi Friends,

I am planning to upgrade HPUX 11.0 64bit running on N4000 to HPUX 11.11. Anybody can tell me what patches/bundles are required for installing Oracle 8.1.7 on it.
I'm not getting the exact link/URL which gives me the minimum required patches for 11.11 to install the Oracle RDBMS on it.
Oracle documents do not mention anything specific to 11.11 only 11.0 hence the message.
Thanks.

Thanks for the link Robert. I think it should do the trick and I will be updating to the patch bundles for 11.11 as of Sep 2003 so it should cover the required patches.

Hi,


It is advised not to opt for upgrade, it lands you in problems, better to do cold install.

how this URL apply for 9i, but also work for 8i

Well,

I got some help from Robert's message but the other links mostly refer to installation of Oracle 8.1.7 on HPUX 11.0 and the patches required for 11.0 not 11.11. I will be doing a cold install of 11.11 and then recover Oracle installation from the tape backup (it's on a different volume group as it is).
I wanted to make sure that before I restore and restart Oracle DB all patches required for HPUX 11.11 are installed and ready to avoid any crashes.
Thanks anyway.
