Hi All,

 I have 1x ES40 Server with Tru64Unix 5.1A installed in single disk 9.1
GB
Now I'm planning to upgrade this OS to 5.1 B-2 in new set of RAID Disks
for more protection.
New OS has to work with the existing oracle database & application.

Can you please suggest me the easy & best way to upgrade the OS to 5.1 B
to New raid disk.

A. Is it possible to restore btextract of OS from 9GBDisk to new RAID
Disks. Later run GENVMUNIX to re-configure the Kernel.
B. Then upgrade OS from 5.1A to 5.1B-2

OR

Another Option leave the existing OS, install fresh OS 5.1B-2 directly
in new disk ..
Is there any procedure to relink the Oracle binaries and database .....

Many Thanks in Advance
Vimal
