Updated 24 Mar 2005 Need to migrate applications from the SUN Solaris platform to the IBM AIX® platform?
In most cases, migration will require nothing more than a simple recompile. But there are exceptions. In this paper, the IBM authors discuss various migration scenarios and focus on the instances that require changes to the application source or to the way the application is built for an easy move from Solaris to AIX.
