I guess to be clearer, we will be taking an exisiting 8.1.7.3 server and upgrading it in place to 9i (whatever flavor is the latest for HPUX when I get around to doing it). Since the disk requirements for 9i are MUCH larger than they were for 8i, I am guessing the migration will take a bit of time.

Thanks for the response.
