    A 64-bit application environment and a 64-bit kernel are completely
    different.

    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
