You shouldn't have to recompile. Your OS is already HP-UX 11 and probably 64 bit, so all your programs should be OK.

Hi Ajith,

As long as your Operating system doesn't change (i.e. going from 32 to 64 bit), you don't need to recompile any program.
PA8600 is fully compatible with PA8500.

Best regards,

Dan
