It depends... YES for Solaris/Sparc but NO for Solaris/x86
This is because of the endianity: AIX is big and only Sparc/Solaris is
big.
You can only restore to same endianity (the oder of the bytes).
I would assume that a restore from v8 to v9(.5) would work, the DB
will be migrated automatically right after the restore. Be sure to
have enough space available for the system area, because e.g. the
files for the tablespaces will have 4times the size than before and
you have enough LOGspace.
