AIX 6.1 app running on 5.x?

Hi,

A quick question. If I build an application on AIX 6.1 TL3 using XL C/C++ 8.0 and Oracle 10g, can I then take those binaries and run them on AIX 5.3 and previous?

Regards
Kevin

If you don't use any special facility or library that was newly introduced with AIX 6.1 than you should be fine.

Kind regards
