The bos.64bit is the Base Operating System 64-bit runtime fileset. If
bos.64bit
is not installed, you do not have the /etc/methods/cfg64 file. Without the
/etc/methods/cfg64 file, you will not have the option of enabling or
disabling
the 64-bit environment via SMIT, which updates the inittab with the
load64bit
line (simply adding this line does not enable the 64-bit environment).
The command lslpp -l bos.64bit will reveal if this fileset is installed.
The
bos.64bit fileset is on the 4.3.x media, however, installing it does not
ensure
that you will be able to run 64-bit software.
With the bos.64bit fileset installed on non 64-bit hardware, you should be
able
to compile your 64-bit software; however, you will not be able to run
64-bit
programs on your 32-bit hardware.

is that completely true? Wasn't there a 64-bit "application environment"
you could enable? I know there was, but I've only used the "application
environment" on 5.1. smit->system environments->enable 64-bit application
environment
That's the smit path from my 4.3.3 oracle financials box. I know i'm
running a 64-bit oracle server on a 32-bit kernel using that, but that's on
5.1. I don't know if the oracle stuff on the financials server is 64-bit.

Can anyone please advise on the following?
1. Does AIX 4.3.3 have a 64bit kernel?
2. How do you enable the 64bit Kernel?
The machine is a B80.
I have to load the Oracle 9i (64 bit version) on the machine to do some
testing
