Moving from 32-bit to 64-bit Oracle 8.1.7 on Sun

We are running 32-bit Oracle 8.1.7 on a Sun Sparc3 6800 (64-bit) with
Solaris 8. The reason was that when we originally created the database
64-bit Oracle on Sun was not yet available.



We now want to install and make use of 64-bit Oracle. What is the
procedure for doing this? Is is simply a matter of installing the new
64-bit executables and libraries? Do we have to do any conversion of
data files?



Any hints or pointers to things to be aware of are welcome.



regards


Ciaran Harron
